Uninstall legacy WinZip's and install MSI
I repackaged WinZip 9.0 into MSI with AdminStudio. I generate a Product Code, and maintain the version no. In the Upgrade Table property, I copied the previous version of Winzip 8.01 that I previously packaged into MSI. Installing WinZip 9.0 successfully remove the WinZip 8.01 and install the WinZip 9.0.
The problem that I am having is on how do I remove other legacy installed WinZip version, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 which is not an MSI. Is there someone out there I can get to help me create a VBScript or any scripting to remove the previous version. If so, how will I implement this during the installation of WinZip 9.0 and at the same time removing any previous version of legacy installed WinZip.
Thank You,

If not MSI the uninstall strings are usually here.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,so that the conversation will remain readable.
