- frollogaston 1mo agoThat doesn't delete all Application Support, Preferences, and Caches dirs associated with it.
- ranger_danger 1mo agoand in many cases, Windows uninstallers don't do the equivalent either and leave stuff dangling about because there's no standard.
- frollogaston 1mo agoLack of standard dirs doesn't really matter in this case because the same dev writes the installer and uninstaller. But I do get annoyed that Windows programs put stuff in random places when I want to look into them, like it's program files, program files (x86), documents, roaming... where tf is %appdata% even
- defrost 1mo agoYeah, I know it's rhetorical, all the same, there are a bunch of ways to query environment variables: * From a windows CLI type SET and all environment variables will be listed along with their values. * From a windows CLI type SET APP and all environment variables prefixed with "app" will be listed along with their values (eg: APPDATA ). * With path location variables, open up file explorer and enter %appdata% in address bar and press enter / click "goto" arrow. File Explorer will expand the variable and show the expanded directory path and contents.
