I'd love if they'd clean up registry keys, or if windows did. But broadly I agree with you.

- pilif 4y agoThe user-specific parts of the registry are powered by files in the user‘s profile and ACLs do not normally allow other users to have access, so the same issue applies there too
- Aloha 4y agolots of them leave crud in HKLM/System and HKLM/Software, as well as I think HKey_Curent_Config I dont mind the per user settings crud, I do mind the system wide crud, because it can make reinstating the app to resolve an issue fraught, and I have to go manually find whatever opaque keys were set and remove them.
