[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-2458) JBDS uninstaller doesn't actually remove JBDS

[Michelle Murray (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2458?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12767820#comment-12767820 ] 

Michelle Murray commented on JBDS-2458:
---------------------------------------

[~nickboldt]: How useful are studio/jbdevstudio.ini and studio/configuration/? Are they only applicable if a user installs the same version of JBDS again? Or could they be used is a user wants to upgrade and install the newest release?

> The uninstaller has two options:
> 1. force deletion of installation folder (select check box)
> 2 don't force the deletion of the installation folder (don't select check box)
> I would expect option 1 to delete the whole installation folder including any files I might have added in there. It does. :)
> I would expect option 2 to delete anything to do with JBDS but leave the folder and any files I have created in it. It doesn't. It leaves a studio folder full of JBDS files and a shortcut by which I can still launch what appears to be a working JBDS. As a user I would assume that the uninstaller would remove JBDS at the very least and I shouldn't still be able to launch it. :(
