I have created a msi setup project for my software everything seems to
be working but the problem is with uninstall part . In my software i
add some mdb files into a folder which initally consist of single mdb
file . during uninstalltion my newly created mdb files are not removed
from the folder .
Please help me out . any kind of help would be appreciated . I am a
newbie in this field any kind of tutorials or reference sites would
work .

Hello, deepali!

There can be many reasons why files arn't deleted... using verbose msi logging
can help you resolve the issue.

Have a look at following link

If it's your software that created the files, MSI won't remove them - it
doesn't even know about them.
