Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (
why?)
If you mark the Component permanent, the User will not be removed
during uninstall.
I think what we can do in this case, is present a message to the
user on uninstall and ask them if they want to retry/cancel/ignore the
failure. The user will be left behind but uninstall will still work.

Subject: ConfigureUsers Custom Action scheduling
To: wix-users@...
Hi all:
We've encountered a problem where ConfigureUsers causes an uninstall to fail if
a domain user is used on install and they are not logged in to the domain on
uninstall. I found this bug on the issue already: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=1894167&group_id=105970.
We are already persisting the username/domain in the registry for use on
uninstall and upgrade so that solution doesn't help me.
Why can't we just schedule ConfigureUsers to NOT REMOVE so it doesn't ever run
on uninstall? Is there anything it needs to do on uninstall that requires
it? I am setting a user on a WebAppPool, a service, message queues and
some directory and registry permissions, too and when testing this theory, the
uninstall was fine.
Dana
