Run a custom action on Uninstall or uninstall a service during Uninstall
I need to uninstall a Windows service during uninstall. Is there a way to do this?
If not, I need to run a custom action that does it. Can you run a Custom Action during the Uninstall??
Btw, this is for MSI. There are no scripts.
Thanks

First, add a script function to uninstall service by ServiceRemoveService in scripts.
Second, add a Custom Action to call your function by the Custom Action Wizard.
Finally, insert your Custom Action to Sequences -> Installation -> Execute, then set the condition.
Hope this helps you.
