Can't uninstall a service developed in Visual Studio -


I have a visual studio project that includes a service and installer. During the development, I have installed and uninstalled MSI-package for at least fifty times, but the last time I tried to uninstall it, I got an error message, "Installed product does not match installation source" and if I But click on the "OK" message I get the following: "Path xxxxxx.msi can not be found." So, first it does not match and can not be found again. or something else. MSI-package is present on the path given in the error message (I have replaced the actual path and package name by xxxxx).

By installing the service, what do I mean by double clicking on the MSI-package creates a "build solution" function and by uninstalling I mean Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs.

I use Windows XP and Visual Studio 2003 in this special project.

I have installed it and uninstalled it and other visual studios have been developed hundreds of times or thousands of times but this has never happened before.

P> What should I do?

I have seen this before, essentially the installer (.msi) wants to use windows not available Is where it believes it should be stored. I am not completely sure why this happens but you have some options to fix it.

  1. Put your MSI in the place where looking for windows
  2. Remove your product entry from the MSI Catalog. This option is a bit risky because it is actually uninstalling it by removing all references to your service. Although the risk is low if it is a service developed by you and it is only your god machine
