Hide entry in Add/Remove in Patch
Hello,
I am creating update.exe using patch project.
This update.exe (let us call it U1) deployed another update.exe (Let us call it U2). U2 will be invoked by U1 silently. But U2 makes entry in Add/Remove programs in Control Panel.
I have make ‘Yes’ to hide add/remove entry of patch project of U2. Still it displays.
How can I resolve this issue?
I am using InstallSheild 2008.
Please I need your help.
Thanks,
Manan Shah

Find GUID for U2 in the registry.
(HKLM-Microsoft-Windows-CurrentVersion-Uninstall)
Either delete this entry or remove value of 'Display name' using script.
