Distinct between Install and Uninstall in Basic MSI
Hello
I'm developing a Basic MSI package. I'm trying to run a custom action but only when uninstalling the package. I tried the REMOVE="ALL" condition but the custom action is called whether it is installed or uninstalled. The custom action is located as the last action in the Execute sequence.
Any idea?

Have you tried logging the uninstall to see if that indicates what the problem is?
