Hey Greg,
I use the following snipt to create an uninstall short cut to remove my
installations and services for my product, this works for both Windows flavors:
<!-- Create shortcut for uninstall -->
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder">
<Directory Id="ShortcutFolder" Name="[My Product Name]">
<Component Id="UninstallShortcutComponent"
Guid="bc058f23-92fb-44f2-9b88-8917779e7a5d">
<RegistryKey Root="HKCU" Key="Software\[My Product
Name]\Uninstall">
<RegistryValue Value="UnInstall [My Product Name]"
Type="string"
KeyPath="yes" />
</RegistryKey>
<Shortcut Id="UninstallProduct"
Name="Uninstall [My Product Name]"
Target="[System64Folder]msiexec.exe"
Arguments="/x [ProductCode]"
Directory="ShortcutFolder"
Description="UnInstalls [My Product Name]" />
<RemoveFolder Id="RemoveShorcutFolder" On="uninstall" />
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
Thanks
Fauzi Ashurex

Subject: [WiX-users] Uninstalling Service on Windows Server 2012 Not Removing
Service
I have a WIX installer build to install a Windows Service. When the uninstaller
is run on a Windows 8, it properly removes the service. But when run on a
Windows Server 2012, the service remains. In order to remove the service on a
2012 server, we are forced to issue an "sc.exe delete" from the console.
Is there additional parameters that need to be included on a Windows Server
2012 service installer?
Thank you.
