      The installer is also the uninstaller. Once you've installed the app, you can go to Add/remove programs and uninstall it.

          What on earth does that mean? You, as the developer, create an installer and give it to your user. Just as he runs the setup file to install the program, he has to use the Add/remove programs applet to uninstall it. I really, really don't understand what you want.

          Cheers, Vıkram.

              sorry i don't know the solution either. But i really liked your comment and i would like to develop an uninstaller.exe too. It's quite a hazard to go to control panel every time i need to uninstall a sw. Specially it is disgusting for developers who need to test their project again and again. Hope someone can give a solution.... i believe many people like me, will be happy to find a proper solution... thanks
