[wix-users] Delete some Registry entries before starting MSI installation

That would be "bad" as it would break the transactional nature of a MSI based install.  Why not fix the MSI to conditionally remove the registry entries?

Subject: [wix-users] Delete some Registry entries before starting MSI installation

There is a requirement to check for some registry entries and delete them if they exist before starting the installation of the MSI. Can anyone please explain how to achieve this, preferably with some code samples?

Regards,
Venkatesh
