I read that permanent='yes' attribute in the Component tag makes the component un-installable. I am facing the problem with one of the components in our product when the permanent flag got included due to the infamous "copy and paste". I read that this sets a regKey but couldn't find the specifics of this key. Can you let me know the fix for making this component remove on uninstalls? Thanks.


There's no documentation on how MSI stores its private data. I'm not sure it'll work but you might be able to create a patch that at least removes the component's resources, if not the component registration itself.
