Multiple installs and uninstall
Hi Experts,

My Setup program asks for two "editions" when installing, Pro and Standard. These can be installed to different locations so they can run on the same PC at the same time.

Also I allow people to install different versions to different locations so they can beta test, etc.

All works well except when they uninstall any version/edition the other versions/editions fail to uninstall.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

You need to store a list of files when installing and then uninstall using that list.

Thanks Stu,

That's a good approach I hadn't thought of. I had started going down the route of 2 installers, one for each edition and putting the version number in the REGKEY. I like your idea better, because I have more control.

Thanks again!
