[02/03] uninstalling program
Hi,
when I uninstall a program (that previously I have installed with setup created by VS 2003) since it does not remove/delete all directories. Always it leaves 1 or 2 directories with its subdirectories.
What I do wrong when I create a setup project?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Moved to App Deployment
What do you use to create your Uninstall Package?

Installers should not automatically delete all folders and data for the application probably creates some of the files and the installer does not know about them and if the installer was to blindly delete files it might be a problem for users who just wanted to uninstall the application and re-install it for they were having trouble but wanted their data to stay intact.
Care should be taken when you delete files and folders...
