Try InnoSetup as an alternative.

It already supports Vista and ist Freeware.
It's very simple to create professional Un/Installers with InnoSetup.

Are you using an installer to put your application on ?
Most installers will set this up so that a program can be uninstalled
easily.

Norman,

I am using a primitive installer (Install Factory) where I must
direct files to specific folders. For example, the app is directed to
the Programs folder. In all other versions of Windows I have placed
the uninstall app in the Programs folder; the user selecting either
the run app or the uninstall app from the Start menu.

Vista appears to separate the run app from the uninstall app, the
latter appearing on a screen listing all uninstall apps. However,
both the run and uninstall apps still are contained in the Programs
folder.

I believe, but may be incorrect, that a shortcut must be placed
somewhere, but I can't seem to find where. :(
