Your right, and that is probably what I am going to do.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Uninstall Order Hello Nick, In general, I find it makes sense to uninstall things in the reverse order to which they were installed. Why not install your SQL data first? That would make sense because then the data is present before the service runs (which I assume is installed along with the application MSI), and then the data is not removed until after the service uninstalled.

(wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net) Subject: [WiX-users] Uninstall Order Hi All, I have another question for you guys. Is there any way to specify the uninstall order in my bootstrappers chain? The reason I ask, is because I have two MSI's, the first one installs the application, and the second installs the sql data. There is a service that runs which accesses the SQL databases created by the second MSI. The problem: when I uninstall, it tries to remove the SQL MSI first, and fails because the databases are in use by the service. I would like bundle to uninstall in the same order that it installed. Is this possible?
