I use findwindow() in the OnUninstall() to find the App , then use sendMessage to close the App, but it seems that if you click the setup.exe to uninstall the App,it don't work.
it don't execute the Oninstall(). So where should i place the findwindow() funcation ?

If you want an overkill you might try pskill.exe from system internals: http://www.sysintern...ies/PsKill.html

I have never used it, but I think you should be able to use a "run EXE file" custom action with the appropriate command line specified.
