My install loadsa pc application plus aUSB driver installer which is launched by ascript as a commint custom action.When my program is uninstalled itdoes not run the USB driver uninstaller. Looking at the add remove programs I know the name of the USB driveruninstall. Can I search the registry for the DisplayName and find the associated UninstallString and run it or do I need to write another spript?

Hi BarberColman,

You said: When my program is uninstalled itdoes not run the USB driver uninstaller.
This is because you install the driver in the custom action.

You also said: Can I search the registry for the DisplayName and find the associated UninstallString and run it or do I need to write another spript?
Yes, you can. Please take this thread as a reference:
