Hello all,

We have a config file that is installed which can be customized post
installation (not sensitive data). How can we save the config file during
uninstall so that customizations can be merged into the new install.

I was thinking along the following:

    A. During uninstall copy the config file to the user's Temp folder so if
reinstall never happens it is no big deal
    B. During install, check the user's Temp folder and if the file is
present, merge it and delete it

Is this feasible, or is there a better way? In either case, can someone
point me to some sample code?
