Display correct wording in Show-InstallationWelcome during Uninstall about psappdeploytoolkit HOT 8 OPEN

Just started using PSADT and have the same frustration. Minor as it seems, it will confuse users. I'm going to look into using bshiznet's workaround for the moment.

I will submit a proper PR time permitting (the words installation and installed should be dynamic using the XML file!) - in the meantime we are working around this by doing a find/replace on the variables that hold the label box text:
`[string]$installPhase = 'Pre-Uninstallation'

	## Show Welcome Message, close Internet Explorer with a 60 second countdown before automatically closing
    $configDeferPromptExpiryMessage = $configDeferPromptExpiryMessage.Replace('installation', 'uninstallation')
    $configClosePromptMessage = $configClosePromptMessage.Replace('installation', 'uninstallation')
    $configDiskSpaceMessage = $configDiskSpaceMessage.Replace('installation', 'uninstallation')
    $configRestartPromptMessage = $configRestartPromptMessage.Replace('installation', 'uninstallation')
    $configBlockExecutionMessage = $configBlockExecutionMessage.Replace('installation', 'uninstallation')
    $configDeferPromptWelcomeMessage = $configDeferPromptWelcomeMessage.Replace('installed', 'uninstalled')`

Show-InstallationWelcome was really only designed to be used for installs, not other deployment types.

I would appreciate to see thes feature too. In many cases it is necessary to do NOT a silent uninstall deplyoment. And if you plan to give the user the chance to close his open programs or allow the use of deferrals on an uninstall deployment, you will need the Show-InstallationWelcome cmdlet. It is confusing for the user as they think a program would be installed instead of removed.

I came here today to submit the same feature request as it is confusing to our users and we need to prompt them to close applications prior to commencing with the uninstall.

The same here. Would also appreciate it if the wording was correct.

Is this issue still open? I would like to work on it.

We'll have this addressed for the v4.0 preview, I'd rather not take in anything non-critical for now as all that code has been heavily rewritten already.
