Hey everyone, I'm relatively new to wix, and thanks to some amazing tutorials
I get the idea of it. However, I'm trying to display a dialog just during
the uninstall. The dialog will ask the user for a password stored in our
servers, which will return either a 1 or 0 if correct or incorrect. This is
to prevent regular users from uninstalling the software. Everywhere I've
searched explains how to display during install, but nothing for uninstall.
Because it's not officially supported from the Control Panel applet
(Add/Remove Programs == ARP or Programs & Features on Vista). ARP and
P&F run MSI uninstalls at basic UI level, so the InstallUISequence is
skipped. To run the UI sequence from ARP requires a "shadow" ARP entry,
which has its own set of problems
