Installing a Service question
Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 12:43 pm
Here's another question I'm looking for information on.
We're using a 3rd party service, and its happily installing fine with the installer. My question is what happens if (by some small miracle) we install on a system that already has the same service being used with another program? I guess the thing I'm really wondering about is if we uninstall our product, does it uninstall the service too, even though another program may be using it? Or is the uninstaller smart enough to figure it out?
Thanks!

p.s. I really do like InstallAware. We've been using it for 2 years now, and so far it done everything I want it to do.
