In this
dialog you can customize a file removal operation. Such operations will
be presented with

By default Windows Installer will remove only the resources that were
installed by the MSI package. This removal operation is intended to be
used for external resources created by custom behaviour.
Name
The name of the file to be removed. Use wildcard patterns for removing multiple files. You can localize this value.
Component
The component which will trigger the file removal operation.
Remove On
The time when the removal will be executed. There are three available moments:
- component install
- component uninstall
- both
Condition
Specify a condition for the removal operation.
Remove empty folders
Enable the removal of empty folder that match the specified name.
Remove non empty folders
Enable the removal of non empty folder that match the specified name.
You can specify a whole folder to be removed upon install or uninstall from the Folder Removal.
The removal operation is extremely useful when the installed
resources are modified post install and would not be removed
otherwise.
