Adding an option to skip configuration files when uninstalling
I'd like to be able to add an option to skip the removal of config and database files during uninstallation. Is this possible with InstallShield LE?
I've seen posts, mostly really old ones, discussing options which I don't see in the current version such as unchecking an "uninstall" property on components or file groups, an option to disable logging, etc.
The only action under "Custom Actions During Uninstallation" is for "After System Changes" so the files are removed already.
Thanks for any assistance!

I'm assuming there is no way to do this with the Express/LE version for now.
