    uninstallation problem

    I there,
    I have an uninstallation problem. I made a setup for a product previously, and now with some upgrades I'm making new setup with higher version number, which must override the previous one. With changing version number, I've changed also ProductCode and PackageCode and marked RemovePreviousVersions property to TRUE.
    Everything works fine, new setup overrides the old one, so that in Add/Remove programs just one version of the product can be seen...
    Except! When I uninstall the product, it leaves some files in Directory.
    Any clues, tips, ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Any files or folders that have been created or changed since the application was originally installed will not be removed when it is uninstalled.
