Hello everyone,

Yesterday Phil Wilson gave me an excellent VBScript to list all the
registered components and associated products on a machine. The reason
I needed this is that it appears I have an "orphaned" component that
should not be in the component database but yet it is. I suspect it is
due to some mistakes I made early on in learning WiX.

What's interesting is that the associated product for this component
changes. After running the script the first time, I saw that the
product owning my rogue component was the "Microsoft .NET Framework
2.0 SDK". So I uninstalled that, thinking that the component would go
away as well. However, *now* it says it's owned in this manner:

{B2A6D36D-DFBA-4209-8DC1-B3C05881528B} is used by the product:
     Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 Samples
(6001.18000.367) {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}and is
installed at C:\
     Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 Samples
(6001.18000.367) {00000001-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}and is
installed at

This was not the case the first time.

Any ideas on how to just zap that one component GUID?

Thanks!
Luke
