UninstallAction Enum

Definition

Specifies what an installer should do during an uninstallation.

public enum class UninstallAction
public enum UninstallAction
type UninstallAction = 
Public Enum UninstallAction
Inheritance
UninstallAction

Fields

Name Value Description
Remove 0

Removes the resource the installer created.

NoAction 1

Leaves the resource created by the installer as is.

Examples

The following sample creates a custom uninstaller that inherits the Installer class. In the overridden Uninstall function, the UninstallAction enumeration is set based on user input. If the input is "n", the custom uninstaller will not take any action on the resource in the event log entered by the user. Otherwise, it will remove the resource from the event log.
