How create uninstaller for my program with AppBuilder?

Hello All!

Tell please how I can create uninstaller for my executable build?
I can create the INSTALLER, but I have no opportunity to create the UNinstaller.

I tried to contact with my tech support in Moscow, but I do not receive the answer for three days!
I wished to find the answer to the question on a site labview.ru, but at this forum is only spam messages! They do not have a moderator there! 😞

Please help me!

Best regards

You have only to run the installer again and it will uninstall the application. Let me know if this shouldn't work.

Have you tried uninstalling it through Control Panael->Add/Remove Programs?  Which version of LabVIEW are we talkign about?  In the latest version of LabVIEW, as long as you have not updated your installer (rebuilt it), it will uninstall the program.  If you build a new version, then it will install over the old version.  You would have to go through Control Panel to uninstall in that case.

Hi,

The LabVIEW Installer Builder uses the Microsoft Installer system (MSI) to create Installers. As such it registers an installation with the Control Panel->Add & Remove Software component and this is the place Microsoft wants users to uninstall and/or manage already installed applications from. As such it has become very common nowadays and most people do expect to uninstall their software from there.

This is in accordance with my experience. Matthew was faster than I, but this is exactly what I would have written in a second answer.
