    Hi, I had an application of BHo developed using Vs2005 c#. I build a setup in Vs2005. In the installation folder, I added my dll and Microsoft.Mshtml.dll. In the "Uninstallation" folder also, I added the same (my dll and Microsoft.Mshtml.dll). while Uninstalling the is an error "Exception occured while initializing the installation. 'System.IO.FileNotfoundException': could not load file or assembly "file:///C:\Program Files\ AB\SetupName\MyDll.dll' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified." How to solve this? Now my setup is not getting "UnInstalled". I tried in many ways, but unable to remove it form my "Add or Remove Programs". How to remove this setup from my add remove programs.

      When you add Files that your Application will need in Application Folder, i don't think you need to add then in the uninstall Folder. Only Add what your application will need and when you uninstall your application, all the files in the Programs File --> YourApplicationFolder will be deleted. Why do you want to do it your self

They now need more and more expensive clerks even though they call them "Developers" or "Programmers."
