Uninstall Issues
I am having an issue with our installer that I can't seem to figure out. After installation, if a user removed all permissions from a file that was installed (Don't ask me why they would just bare with me) and then they try and uninstall the software. I would expect they get and error stating the installer couldn't remove the file but what actually happens is the installer says it completed successfully and the file remains on the system. I checked the log created after uninstallation and there is an "Info 1321" line (not an Error 1321 which is what I would expect) stating there isn't enough privileges to modify the file. Is there a way I can elevate the warning to an error or anything like that?

You could try configure the setup file to require administrator rights on launch (i.e. "Required Execution Level" = Admin on the "Setup.exe" tab for the release).
