What Chris suggested should work in you case. Since you are going to create a xml, what I can see here is to import a skeleton xml (right click on 'xml file change' then ->Import, a wizard would show up), you might put some tokens in it, after importing, you can change element/attributes on how you would like it to be handled via 'Operation' and "scheduling' under General tab, and tweak Element Properties under Advance tab. ...

If it is a InstallScript or InstallScript MSI project, when you uninstall your product by clicking "Remove" from Add/Remove Program, it calls OnUninstall() in your project.

I use IS 2011, it has not such thing as "Suite/Advanced UI project" which comes with IS 2012 Spring. Early last year, I faced a similar situation where it was required to install different features/components sets depending on the bitsize of MS Office. The complication was that 32bit MS Office can be installed on both 32bit and 64bit Windows where 64bit MS Office can only be installed on 64bit Windows. I used InstallScript MSI project, I could put 32bit features/components alongside with 64bit ones in one project, but I could not build all features into one installer. It seemed to be the limitation/restriction of MSI not InstallShield. I ended up with 2 installers: a 32bit one targeting 32bit MS Office on both 32/64bit Windows and a 64bit one targeting 64bit MS Office on 64bit Windows. Please kindly post it here if you can work out a solution (one msi covers 32/64 windows) using IS 2012 Spring, it would be a very good motivation for me to upgrade my InstallShield. Thanks in advance, ... View more

You can either pass all 3 parameters (-s, -f1 -f2) or none to the Setup if I am not mistaken. So, you might give the log file a different name and/or location, but I do not think you have an option to get rid of it if that's what you wanted. ... View more
