During uninstallation the dll does not remove from system32 folder

481 Views Asked by At
I have a 64-bit InstallScript set up.

The only problem is figuring out what I uninstall set up the dll does not delete from system32 folder.

I can't find anything in the documentation that explains how to accomplish this task. I am using InstallShield 2011, thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

The SYSTEM32 folder is supposed to contain only permanent components that are never uninstalled. Not sure about InstallShield's implementation, but the regular MSI testsuite flags an error if you define a File that installs there and do not mark it Permanent.

Thus, I'd change to a different location.
