Uninstall Question

Postby owen » Thu Dec 14, 2006 9:16 am

Is it ok to perform an action after Apply Uninstall is called?

Specifically I am calling Apply Uninstall which stops and deletes the service I installed previously and then I call Delete Files Recursively to delete the installation folder, but I need to do it after the service is stopped so the program will release all open handles on the files I want to delete.

Thanks!

Sure. Delete Recursive is not an MSI command. Therefore, it executes immediately and has no dependency on Apply (Un)Install.
