Uninstalling Self

[ranoel]

I’m trying to create an uninstall program for my application. I can remove everything except the program that’s doing the removing. (error code 70 permission denied). How do they get around this problem?

you can try installing the installer and then running it. then you can just go to ad or rmove programs (xp) and delete it itself. Note the user can just do this to uninstall the actual program you dont have to create an uninstallation

Moved to application deployment.

What installer are you using?

I do the install. Using a .inf file I move all the necessary files from a cd to the computer then execute the application. I would like the users to have the option to click a button and have everything that was placed on their computer removed when they no longer need the application.

There lies the problem... Use a conventional installer and you won't have those kinds of problems.
