I've found the following entry in the verbose logs: MSI (s) (F0:E4) [05:36:30:999]: No System Restore sequence number for this installation.

This seems to imply that the Uninstall action is attempting to restart the app. Which is undesirable. Is that right ? How can I stop this? Is there a way of controlling the bootstrap uninstall?? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Wix-bootstrapping-an-MSI-with-Burn-Installs-ok-Uninstall-Fails-MSI-on-it-s-own-installs-uninstalls-Ok-tp7585073p7585086.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
