If you use Visual Studio Installer Project to create installer then that installer also work for repair and uninstall of exe eg Setup Project or Setup Wizard.
Uninstall will delete all the files that he had install.
If some file are added dynamically then just add some dummy file with same name and extension in the Application Folder Of installer then installer will remove that also.
Can you elaborate how do you create you installer?
