Uninstallation Script Issues

[mr-es335]

Good day,

I have 4 installation scripts - which are executed "back-to-back".

All scripts are nearly identical - except for the application that is being uninstalled at that particular time. All 4 installations terminate with a "Finish" button that requires a "wait time" to be enabled.

Some time ago Resiak1811 provided a "solution" to my query which, at first , appeared to work, but I am now having some "issues"!?!

Here is the combined script:

My issue is with regards to the first uninstall - which is also the longest in terms of time, has the final dialog NOT exiting when expected, or the exit of this dialog is intermittent! As can be observed all scripts as noted previously, are nearly identical.

My question is: "Why is the first dialog not exiting when all 3 remaining dialogs do?

Also, If I execute a 2nd install|uninstall, the the first dialog exists as expected??

Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated.

I would ask 
why does the first one have spaces in REMOVE = True MODIFY = FALSE
and the others don't?
