Deployment Project

I have two questions regarding deployment project in VS 2005.

1. When i am uninstalling the application, the application folder in C:\ProgramFiles\.... is not getting deleted, why?

2.How to make a deployment which will automatically uninstall the old version and install the new one?

Hi,

Are there any files being left behind in the program files folder that isn't being deleted ? Typically uninstall programs don't delete files they didn't create (including log files, config files etc), and won't remove non-empty directories.
