I'm creating the Setup package for my WinForms app. Most everything is going
well but I'm struggling with 2 things:

1. No matter what I try to do, I cannot get the Add/Remove Programs icon to
display correctly. I've pointed it to my app's icon but all I end up getting
is a standard folder icon.

2. I figured out how to add an Uninstall option to my app's folder in the
Start menu. I simply added a Shortcut and pointed it to
C:\Windows\System32\msiexec.exe Then I added the following in the Arguments
field: /x [ProductCode]
It works great. But when this option is run, the prompt I get is "Are you
sure you want to uninstall this product?" Okay, but boring. I can't
figure out how to customize this particular dialog box.

If you have any ideas about either, I'd sure like to hear them!
