Re: How to uninstall a .cab flagged as "nouninstall=1"?

I looked at the _setup.xml and un-did everything, as well as un-registered the .dll, but the installation still seems to "know" that a previous version was installed and does not install over properly.
I had the same problem with a different cab a while back. The issue was caused by a file that was set to self register. I would recommend un-checking all of the self registering settings.

You could try installing reglogger. Then you could see which key the install is looking at.
