Can you be more specific about what wasn't removed? By default RegistryValues installed should be removed at uninstall.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] changing heat registry entries to createAndRemoveOnUninstall Without Action="createAndRemoveOnUninstall" they weren't removed during uninstall.

The default "none" should be sufficient for this case. -----Original Message----- From: David Jackson [mailto:david.jack...@ca.ibm.com] Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2008 12:07 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] changing heat registry entries to createAndRemoveOnUninstall Does anybody have a solution for fixing up RegistryValue elements generated by heat so that I can specify Action="createAndRemoveOnUninstall"? I think this should be doable with XSL but I'm not sure how to go about it. For example: Heat gives me RegistryValues like this: <RegistryValue Root="HKCR" Key="x\y\z" Name="" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> <RegistryValue Root="HKCR" Key="x\y\z" Name="Class" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> <RegistryValue Root="HKCR" Key="x\y\z" Name="Assembly" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> <RegistryValue Root="HKCR" Key="x\y\z" Name="RuntimeVersion" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> ... I get the result I want by changing them to this format: <RegistryKey Root="HKCR" Key="x\y\z" Action="createAndRemoveOnUninstall"> <RegistryValue Name="" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> <RegistryValue Name="Class" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> <RegistryValue Name="Assembly" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> <RegistryValue Name="RuntimeVersion" Value="abc" Type="string" Action="write" /> </RegistryKey> Does anybody have an XSL transform for doing that or another suggestion? I Wrote a python script but it's not pretty... I've also looked at developing heat extensions.
