Hi

I have a folder under C:\inetpub\wwwroot\SFS with some subfolders are not removed SOMETIMES after uninstall. The behavior is it gets removed in the first or two fresh installations, but left there after a few installations. Below is the error I found in the log file:
WriteMetabaseChanges:  Key `/LM/W3SVC/1/Root/SFS/SFSWebServices/`did not exist, continuing.
WriteMetabaseChanges:  Key `/LM/W3SVC/1/Root/SFS/Images/`did not exist, continuing.

Here is related wix2 code:
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
                <Directory Id="IISMain" Name="Inetpub">
                                <Directory Id="WWWMain" Name="wwwroot">
                                                <Directory Id="SFS" Name="SFS">
                                                                <Component Id="FileShare" Guid="EEDD1912-55DC-11DE-99CC-41A656D89593">
                                                                                <CreateFolder/>
                                                                                <User Id="Everyone" Name="Everyone"/>
                                                                                <FileShare Id="SFSWWWRoot" Name="SFS" Description="Share C:\inetput\wwwroot\SFS">
                                                                                                <Permission ReadPermission="yes" GenericRead="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" User="Everyone"/>
                                                                                </FileShare>
                                                                </Component>
                                                                <Directory Id="Images" Name="Images"/>
                                                                <Directory Id="Factors" Name="Factors"/>
                                                                                                                ....

The behavior is same with or without the FileShare.

                                <DirectoryRef Id="SFS">
                                                <Component Id="CreateVirDirs_" Guid="D60A8082-3347-401f-8A59-CD02F4C2AE3B">
                                                                <WebVirtualDir Id="SFSVirtualDir" Alias="SFS" Directory="SFS" WebSite="DefaultWebSite">
                                                                                <WebVirtualDir Id="InternalWebVirtualDirID" Alias="Internal" Directory="Internal" DirProperties="WebDirNTOnly">
                .......

That error message is about the IIS Metabase, not the file system.
Probably not related.
