That was an uninstall command you ran. The log data would suggest the uninstalls of these products failed. That could very likely be the root issue.

Subject: [wix-users] Installed Property

Ran

msiexec /x {9313692B-D5DB-4B05-AE8D-E1B1720C7D87} /l*v mylog_x1.txt

and got the error message:

The specified account already exists.

Ran

msiexec /x {9313692B-D5DB-4B05-AE8D-E1B1720C7D87} /l mylog_x1a.txt

so I got less data in the log file, and got these lines near the end of the
log:
-----
Action start 8:38:41: InstallFinalize.
MSI (s) (88:00) [08:38:42:733]: Product: Setup Test 2 -- Error 1316. The specified account already exists.


Error 1316. The specified account already exists.

Action ended 8:38:42: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.
Action ended 8:38:42: INSTALL. Return value 3.
MSI (s) (88:00) [08:38:42:787]: Product: Setup Test 2 -- Removal failed.

Thanks for all your help.

I am a Win newbie, and I know my users are not tech savvy.  I think the best way for me to proceed is to use a FileSearch to find my app instead of using the Installed property.
