Installshield Program Deinstallation

Hi,

is it possible to deinstall our old version in installshield, before installing our new version with InstallAware. Which settings do i need to set?

Sorry for overquestioning, but i could not find this answer in the manual, but maybe i should buy glasses.

You should be able to do this two ways:

1) If the InstallShield setup is an MSI setup, use the (Un)Install MSI Setup plug-in, and supply the product GUID.

2) If its not an MSI setup, you can still run the command line uninstallation tool silently using the Run Program command and specifying the silent and uninstall options from the command line to the uninstallation EXE.
