Hello

I need a to be able to roll back patches (to the previous patch) via burn.
The applied patches show in 'Installed Updates', and patch 1.0.2 supersedes patch 1.0.1. This all works fines, but when I uninstall patch 1.0.2, patch 1.0.1 is still present on the system, but does not show in 'Installed Updates'.

I understand this has been reported as issue <http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4033> 4033<http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4033>, and is marked as fixed, but I tried the latest 3.10 and 4.0 and well as 3.9 R2 and it's not working for me.

Could someone please point me in the right direction?

many thanks
Robert
