Subject: [WiX-devs] Wix uninstall does not remove folders in GAC and uninstall 
through control panel follows non-UI uninstallation

Hi,

I got a couple of problems of wix uninstall:


1.       Our dlls are installed in GAC. When we upgrade to .Net 4.5, uninstall 
remove the dlls in the GAC, but still left the empty folders there, is it a 
bug? Is there any way to remove the folder also? In .Net 4.0, there is no such 
problem ( both dlls and folders are removed).

Here is our code:
                     <Component Id="CMP_ARCHITECTUREEXTDLL" 
Guid="{124D13B7-B963-4C8A-A279-0CE11AAA785C}" >
                           <File Id="FILE_ARCHITECTUREEXTDLL" 
Name="ArchitectureExt.dll" DiskId="1" Assembly=".net"  
Source=".\Bin\ArchitectureExt.dll" 
DefaultVersion="CMP_ARCHITECTUREEXTDLL_VERSION" KeyPath="yes" />

              </Component>





2.       When uninstall by double click the installation file ( *.msi), it 
shows welcome dialog, option dialog (change, repair, remove options), verified 
dialog, progress dialog and finish dialog. We like this flow. However, if we 
uninstall from control panel, it goes as non-UI installation. Is there any way 
to change the uninstall behavior if uninstall through control panel?





Thank you so much!



Ruth
