Why the Microsoft Installer (MSI) format? For stability purpose and easier management

Have you ever uninstalled software, just to find out that it leaves a lot of files behind? Those left behind, not to mention those pesky registry keys, which too much often prevent updates and upgrades.

The Microsoft MSI technology , was developed to address those problems. The applications in .msi format are made of a database and include all the needed files and registry keys for the software to function properly.

When MSI packages are well developed, they have the capacity of self healing, working without conflict and uninstall completely to leave your PC's clean. Further more, only the applications in MSI format can be deployed and managed thru the GPO's of Microsoft Active Directory.
