Wix Toolset: Running "Remove" from msi file does not work

Question

I have a Wix Toolset project that uses WixUI_Minimal.

When I install from the generated MSI file, the app installs normally.

When I click on the MSI file again, I have two options: Repair & Remove.

Clicking on Remove attempts to un-install the app, but it fails, rolls back and tell me that the setup wizard has ended prematurely.

If I uninstall the application from "Add/Remove Programs" it works fine and the application is removed.

what can be wrong here?

UPDATE

This is part of the log file when attempting to remove the app from the MSI:
