VS2005 Setup Project File with Property 'Permanent' is uninstalled

Hi,

I'm working with VS2005 and I have a setup project that installs a Windows
forms application. I have a config file ( it's the app.config file -
MyApp.exe.config) which I want to leave on the target system if the
application is uninstalled. In the Setup Project File System designer I set
the "permanent" property of this file to "True", which should leave the file
installed if the user uninstalls the application. However if I uninstall the
application using the setup.exe generated by the setup project it removes
this file.

Am I doing something wrong?
