INSTALLDIR value during uninstall

Jump to solution

Hi.  During install, I am using a custom folder to install to (e:\testDirectory).  During Uninstall, INSTALLDIR is always set to c:\testDirectory.  This is the default.  I change to E drive as part of the install.  I need to be able to access the e:\testDirectory during uninstall.  Can anybody suggest what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,

AndrewArgus

Basically save the installation information under your programs registry and retrieve when you do the uninstall.
