I've written a CA that will uninstall a previous version of my program if present during setup.

MSIEXEC /x {GUID} /qn

When the CA is supposed to run, I get an "Internal error 2743".  For some reason the setup can't execute the CA.  Can somebody tell me why?  What am I doing wrong?

MSI provides a structured way of handling upgrades.  Use the Upgrade table and RemoveExistingProducts to do this. See documentation on Major upgrade ins msi docs.
