Add a RemoveFolder to your start menu. RemoveFolder will only remove empty folders.
Description Remove an empty folder if the parent component is selected for installation or removal. By default, the folder is the directory of the parent component. This can be overridden by specifying the Directory attribute with a value corresponding to the Id of the directory, or by specifying the Property attribute with a value corresponding to a property that will have a value that resolves to the full path of the folder. -----Original Message----- From: Sean Farrow [mailto:sean.far...@seanfarrow.co.uk] Sent: Friday, March 23, 2012 2:38 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Repairing ice64 Importance: High Hi Folks: I'm currently writing the first of what could be many installers for a company. I have the following inside the TARGETDIR directory: <Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder"> <Directory Id="COMPANYSTARTMENUFOLDER" Name="Raised Bar"> <Directory Id="ApplicationProgramsFolder" Name="Surface Reader"/> </Directory> </Directory> I then have a component that installs a shortcut: <DirectoryRef Id="ApplicationProgramsFolder"> <Component Id="ApplicationShortcut"> <Shortcut Id="ApplicationStartMenuShortcut" Name="Surface Reader" Description="Allow access to MIDI control surfaces" Target="[APPLICATIONROOTDIRECTORY]Surface Reader.exe.exe" WorkingDirectory="APPLICATIONROOTDIRECTORY"/> <RemoveFolder Id="ApplicationProgramsFolder" On="uninstall"/> <RegistryValue Root="HKLM" Key="Software\Raised Bar\Surface Reader" Name="installed" Type="integer" Value="1" KeyPath="yes"/> </Component> </DirectoryRef> I am successfully removing the ApplicationProgramsFolder, as can be seen above. But I'm getting an ice64 telling me that the "COMPANYSTARTMENUFOLDER" is not removed. Given that there could be other products in the future, what is the best way of getting around this issue? Any help accepted.
