Subject: Registry Cleanup
Hello,

Since the dawn of MSI in 1999 or so, I've used the following pair of
components to clean up registry on removal of my product(s).  For  the
life of me, I can't come up with the correct WIX v3 syntax to do
this.

Can anyone help?

Here is what the 2 components look like in Orca:

Component               ID      Directory       Attr    KeyPath
REG_HKLM_Cleanup        {guid1} INSTALLDIR      4       REG_HKLM_Cleanup
REG_HKCU_Cleanup        {guid2} INSTALLDIR      4       REG_HKCU_Cleanup

Registry                Root    Key             Name    Component
REG_HKLM_Cleanup        2       SOFTWARE\MYApp  -       REG_HKLM_Cleanup
REG_HKCU_Cleanup        1       Software\MYApp  -       REG_HKCU_Cleanup

TIA, Jim
