Hi Everybody,
I am using InstallShield 11 Professional, and deals with basic msi projects. I have created one Uninstallation shortcut for my program in Program Menu, when I click on this Uninstallation shortcut then my program gets uninstalled using windows installer, but InstallShield’s Uninstallation wizard does not come. What I want is Uninstallation process must go though InstallShield’s Uninstallation wizard. Can anybody suggest me, how to do this?
Thanks,
Ajay

Not sure what you means with INstallShield uninstall wizard. How do you create the uninstall shortcut? Did you make sure it runs with full UI?

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your interest.
I have created uninstallation shortcut from application shortcuts page of project assistance wizard. Now what I want is, when I uninstall my program from program menu. Then uninstallation process should go through a wizard, which I have seen for most of standard builds created with InstallShield.

Where does your shortcut link to? What command line?

Hi Stefan,
Sorry for replying late.
I have targeted Uninstallation to [SystemFolder]msiexec.exe, which I suppose results into silent Uninstallation of my program. I want the Uninstallation should go through a wizard.

It depends on the command line parameters you pass to msiexec.exe. Could you post the COMPLETE command line that your shortcut launches?

Hi Stefan,
The argument I am passing to msiexec.exe is “/x {Product Code}”.
I know switch x we use for un-installation, but I am not getting which argument to pass for directing it to un-installation wizard.
Thanks,
Ajay

Try instead:
msiexec.exe /i {ProductCode} REMOVE=ALL
msiexec.exe /i {ProductCode} REMOVE=ALL

Thanks Stefan,
Learning lots of new things from you.
This argument is taking un-installation process through a wizard, but it shows resume setup dialog box. Can this go through uninstall welcome and finish dialog box?
If this dialog box and sequences are not available readymade with IS..can you please tell me how to do this?

Check the conditions on your dialogs in the UI Sequence.
