uninstaller doesnt clear the registry entries

All,

    I am using COIOSHelper. This works fine during installation and product shows up fine in windows control panel. Issue is that uninstaller doesnt remove the registry? wondering if some one faced similar issue and figured out some way. I am not using RegistrySpec.xml. My understanding is that its not must and default registry install/uninstall should still work.

I have the same question. When I use the Windows Add/Remove Programs control panel to uninstall my application, the application is removed but the application is still listed in the control panel. I am using RegistrySpec.xml. I was able to uninstall IzPack from the control panel and the IzPack entry goes away. What might be causing my application entry NOT to be removed?

I have exactly the same problem, does anyone know how to fix this?

Hi,
do you have add registry stuff to the uninstaller in your installation description file (often called install.xml)?
...
    <!-- The listeners section for CustomActions -->
    <listeners>
        ...
                <listener installer="RegistryInstallerListener"
                  uninstaller="RegistryUninstallerListener">
---------------------^
            <os family="windows"/>
        </listener>
    </listeners>
...
    <native type="3rdparty" name="COIOSHelper.dll" stage="both">
----------------------------------------------------------^
        <os family="windows"/>
    </native>
...

Cheers

Klaus
