      Using the RemoveFile table in MSI causes issues with JRE uninstallation:

      1. It dramatically decreases performance (uninstallations a SLOW).
      2. It prevents disabling the "FilesInUse" dialog, which along with inherent limitations, can cause JRE uninstallations to fail, or otherwise leave the user in an unacceptable state.
