Hi Alain,
because I register the service through a vb script, and there's some other
things the script does before registering it using
CreateServiceForApplication and I dont want to make any changes to the

Well, it wouldn't because the REINSTALL property is set during repair and
you're conditioning on NOT REINSTALL.

Check the logs. That should tell you what REMOVE and REINSTALL are being
set to, and when they are being set. Look for lines like this:
MSI (s) (04:4C) [05:39:56:736]: Command Line: REMOVE=ALL
CURRENTDIRECTORY=C:\Windows\system32 CLIENTUILEVEL=2 CLIENTPROCESSID=1768
or this:
MSI (s) (64:48)
You can still use the WiX ServiceControl element to stop the service at
uninstall time. There's no requirement that the ServiceControl table refer
to services that you're installing. The files-in-use logic will detect that
the service is going to be stopped and will not show the files-in-use

Hi,

When, during the uninstall process, are you getting the error? Is it
happening during the RemoveFiles action? If so, you might try adding the
Wait=yes attribute to your ServiceControl so that it waits for it to stop
the service before moving on to remove files. It may be that the SCM is
