INI file ? Has this file changed since installed ? Are the modified and created dates still the same ? Any files modified after installation are assumed to be data that needs to be kept, and are not uninstalled. You'd need an explicit <RemoveFile> to remove it. Ideally, don't install any config files - generate them in the application from defaults if they aren't present.

There are some number of lines "Disallowing uninstallation of component {GUID} since another client exists, but looking at the MSI in orca, those components all seem to be part of the C runtime, with the exception of my INI file which is staying at the same location. Is there some other string that I should be looking for? I have read the entire log, but admit that I do not fully understand some parts of it. -Ben Kaduk ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
