[wix-users] Does not uninstall windows service.

[Harinatha Narisetty]

I have created the bundle exe. As part of my MSI I install two services and start them. Uninstall them when the product is uninstalled.  Everything works  fine on  fresh machines. I am facing below problem on some of the development and qa machines.

Both the files look same except file names. Is there anything I need to verify on few machines where the service entries not removed upon uninstallation?


SERVICE 1: This does not remove the entry from services consistently.
