Don't include in uninstaller?
Is there a way to suspend inclusion of commands in the uninstaller?
To illustrate what I mean:
User installs version N of program;
It sets up registry entries - like document extension and icon.
User installs upgrade to version N+1
It sets up (overwrites) registry entries - like document extension and icon.
User uninstalls version N
Registry entries, supposedly installed with version N, but actually wanted for version N+1 are removed. :(
Now if there were a command in the install script to suspend/resume inclusion of commands in the uninstaller
....
Suspend inclusion in uninstaller
Add registry entries
Resume inclusion in uninstaller
....
or something equivalent, then this would be easily avoidable.
But I can't find one. is there anything?

Dave,
Sure, no problem. Use the "Set Installer Log Mode..." function to disable/enable logging.
Close the log then do whatever you have to do. Then re-open it (NOT CREATE!!)
See attached screenshot. Does this help?
