I have a wix project that installs performance counters using the 
util:PerformanceCategory and util:PerformanceCounter elements.  The performance 
counters are installed as expected.  However, when uninstalling, the 
performance counters are sometimes left installed on the machine.

Here is an example of the pattern we are using:

<Component Id='perfCounters' Guid='C0D623E8-F04C-48A7-9F2D-5F996891AE24'  
KeyPath='yes'>
        <util:PerformanceCategory Id="PerfCounterCategory"  
Name="ProductPerfCounters" MultiInstance="yes">

          <util:PerformanceCounter Name="Requests per second" 
Type="rateOfCountsPerSecond64" />
          <util:PerformanceCounter Name="Request count" Type="numberOfItems64" 
/>

        </util:PerformanceCategory>
      </Component>

Does anyone know why the performance counters are left installed sometimes?  Is 
there a way to 'force' them to be uninstalled using wix?
