I created a major upgrade (IS 7.04 Standard Project) that uninstall silently the old setup using the setup.exe /s f1/ and then continue with the new installation. Both setups creates registry entries and shortcuts using IS script.
The uninstallation of the previous setup removes properly files, registries, shortcuts . Also the new installation of the new setup creates them properly. The problem is when the user clicks on the finish dialog the common (for both setups) registry entries and shortcuts are removed and at that time is only the idriver.exe process active.
