[wix-users] VsixPackage target & uninstall

I was having issue with uninstallation bcoz the same reason and VS SKU target.

But as per ur problem description, I thought there might be problem with target VS SKU version in the manifest, good that u found the problem, hope it is working. 

For sku related problems, u may have to use version-range using [ , ] , ( , ] [, ) and (, ) accordingly


Thanks
Sampat

Thanks Sam, looks like the ID in manifest was wrong indeed!

Hello,

let's say I am trying to use the VSExtension to get a VSIX package installed:

<VSExtension:VsixPackage File="MyVSIX" PackageId="..." Target="professional" TargetVersion="14.0" Vital="yes" Permanent="no"/>

If the user has Enterprise edition (only), it installs fine (I guess professional means professional and up) but when trying to uninstall, the uninstallation fails with 2003. Running it manually results in error that the extension is not installed to "Pro".

Any advice on how to make the uninstall working too?

Thanks,
Jan
