The installer IS the uninstaller. Your program will get added to the add/remove programs list when you install it

Just add a shortcut of the uninstaller to the right folder Drive:\Documents and Settings\YourUser\Start Menu\Programs\YourAppFolder\Uninstall.exe //for a specific user "usually current by matching the current user
System.Environment.UserNamewith the special folder" or: Drive:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\YourAppFolder\Uninstall.exe //for all users ps. Of course you'll have to check your folders locations usingSystem.Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFiles

All you have to do is add ashortcut with the command line to invoke
msiexec/xoption and the correct .MSI file name OR Product Code.msiexec /x filename.msi
or
msiexec /x productcode

Did you supply the FULL path to the .MSI file? A better option would be to use the Product code instead.
