Uninstallation of Visual C++ 8.0 ATL (x86) WinSXS MSM
I have a project on InstallShield 12. The project includes standard redistributable module Visual C++ 8.0 ATL (x86) WinSXS MSM (Microsoft_VC80_ATL_x86.msm) – it contains file ATL80.dll and others.
I have seen the following problem: uninstallation of my project works too slow – up to 10 minutes. This is uninstallation of the “Visual C++ 8.0 ATL (x86) WinSXS MSM” who takes all the time (custom action SxsUninstallCA).
I tried to use the following solution to avoid such long uninstallation – I have added flag msidbComponentAttributesPermanent into Attributes column of Component Table of the Microsoft_VC80_ATL_x86.msm. But this did not help – its uninstallation happens anyway.
What else I can do?
