I know it will rollback on an install that fails... but if it does not
fail I want to rollback to the previous version... especially when I
mess it up and things don't go well. Is there a shortcut I can make?

Thanks,

You can use the "Smart Rollback" functionality (see attached screenshot).
Just use the same uninstall .exe and .log name.

BTW, we are using this feature to provide rollback capability in
SetupBuilder itself. The Shortcut lets the user rollback to the previous
version.
