OK, so I'm going to give it a shot, may take a while though. Any pointers /
requirements from people such as Bobs usage of RemoveFile (being naive I
would have just deleted the files / dirs)?
Notes;
1) It won't be 64 bit tested.
2) It will be based on the sample @
http://www.wixwiki.com/index.php?title=Simple_Custom_Action_Dll
3) It will use RemoveFile (and RemoveDirectory if there is one) for
rollback (I assume).
4) I'll post the resultant source on here for critique if that is OK.
Regards
Ryan

I know the parent folder is mine so it is safe to delete all below that. Has
anyone else come across deleting directory trees? I appreciate it is
dangerous but I can't see an easy way around it.
MSI doesn't have anything like that. I designed a "NukeFolder" custom action
that added temporary rows to the RemoveFile table but it hasn't bubbled up
the todo list yet.
