Uninstall program installed by MSI attached in another MSI

I have made a MSI by repackage. And I create a custom action who launches the repackage MSI in another MSI.

After I install second MSI. Two MSI are all installed and in control panel I see two uninstall items corresponding to the two MSI.

Then I double click uninstall item of MSI attached,it is failed to uninstall.

I double click uninstall item of second MSI, it finished the process of uninstallation, but files of first MSI in hard disk are still there.

How to make Advanced Installer to do proper uninstallation.

Thanks.
Daniel

Re: Uninstall program installed by MSI attached in another MSI

Hello,

To check why the uninstall process fails you can create a verbose log of the uninstall process.

Can you please create and send us the uninstall verbose log and the AIP (project file) of the setup which fails to uninstall by email to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate this?

All the best,
Daniel
