Setup Pre-Requisite

By
Not applicable
I am including two vendor MSI's to create one wrapper (setup.exe) for installation. Everything works fine as far as installation goes..now I want to unisntall these two pre-requisite along with main wrapper. I tried Custom action 39 to uninstall these two MSI but its not working.

Any help would be helpful ..........

Thanks
Ajay

I think that this will only work with packages that were installed by Nested MSI custom actions.

Do you know if you're going to account for silent uninstall scenarios? Because if you're assuming that uninstall will take place with a user interface, you could easily use an EXE custom action as described here to handle this in the UI sequence:

Then, you'll just use the syntax:

msiexec.exe /x{product code}

Thanks Cary!!

I am trying to do a silent Uninstall of these setup prq's.
Hi Ajay,

By silent, do you mean that the main installer's uninstall is going to be silent?

Because you can silently remove the prereq's easily enough using that link I posted, but only if the Main installation runs with the normal Maintenance dialogs.
