What I am thinking on doing is, when the user runs the install :
I want a log file to be created in the default install folder which gives an idea on where it failed and why it failed for me to debug later.

I also want to log similar sequences during uninstall.

One thing I am not sure is, whether this can be done in Basic MSI or not ?

Thanks !!!
