[WiX-users] Unable to uninstall previously installed product
Hi, I used different installer (InstallJammer) to install my application. I have now msi installer for the same application. Could you please tell me how I can uninstall previous installation since I find no upgrade code in installjammer? Or, is it only possible to update if the previous installation was also msi file? Is there any way to find the upgrade code in registry? Thanks. -- HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source. Fast. Scalable. Simple.

Re: [WiX-users] Unable to uninstall previously installed product
I've seen this done by having the upgrade get the uninstall string from the registry, where there should be a command you can use since it's not MSI-based. Whether you should call it in the UI sequence or the execute sequence or both depends on your requirements for silent installs, meaning that you'd need to do it silently in the execute sequence, and perhaps need to alter the uninstall command to make it silent. The same general idea should work if that install has a standard uninstall shortcut you could get the command from. Either way, you're just using a CA to run an external program, or maybe a Util CAQuietExec kind of thing. --- Phil Wilson On Fri, Jun 20, 2014 at 8:45 AM, Dolevo Jay c...@live.com wrote: Previous installer was InstallJammer.
