It appears to just detect the presence of an installed scheme handler, not the application itself. This does tell you that the application was at one point installed and the uninstaller for it lies and doesn't completely uninstall, but none of the applications it thinks I have are applications I still have (just Spotify and Skype, but still).
Good to know who the offenders are, Spotify and Skype. Everything else I uninstalled was actually uninstalled.
- nonameiguess 5y agoFor what it's worth, I went to the Registry Editor, deleted the entries in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT for Skype and Spotify completely, and these are still showing up as installed. Makes me wonder if Windows is somehow pre-installing custom scheme handlers for these, whether you have them or not. As far as I know, Skype comes with Windows, so there is no way to test a fresh installation that never had it at all, but Spotify? Is there anyone using a completely clean fresh Windows installation that can test if this demo thinks it is installed even though it isn't?
