Hi,

I met something weird.

I've an exe, which could be deleted by uninstalling the corresponding msi
while it's still running.
After uninstall, I can still perform some actions on it. (It's a wpf windows
app)
The exe is missing, but the folder contained the exe, which was created by
the msi, remained.

(Environment: Vista SP1, .Net 3.5, WPF windows app)

This really conflicts with my understanding.
My first reaction is, it may be related to Vista Virtualization.
So I tried with procexp/procmon, and search throughout the disk for the copy
of the exe, but nothing useful was found.
I tried to delete the exe manually with elevated privilege, and get error
"Access is denied".

I feel really confused, could someone shed some light?
Both "popup before deleting the exe", and "delete the folder as well", are
ok for me.

Many thanks!
Yixie
