I have a problem with some wxs files and the corresponding msi files.

I can install the msi files fine. I can uninstall them fine if I say "msiexec 
/x abc.msi SETUPDIR=C:\SETUPHERE".

If I don't specify the extra parameter on the command line, the uninstall will 
fail. This is a problem I am supposed to fix as we cannot presently use "add 
remove programs".

So I decided it would be good to store the value of SETUPDIR in the registry 
and define a property with that value in uninstall process.

Is this the best solution or is there a better way?

Can someone show me how to define a new property

(1)    Whose value is defined and saved in the registry in the install process

(2)    Whose value is retrieved from the registry in the uninstall process?





Thanks!

Siegfried
