How can i run a Powershell script when uninstalling ?

I have a powershell script that i want to run before a total uninstall. I want to run the file from the APPDIR and I want it to run before all other files are uninstalled because the script relies on reading a file and if it is deleted first then the script wont run .
How can i do this ?
