Agree completely.
I would have assumed (naively?) that they could just copy their uninstaller into a temp folder and run it from there, and just rely on the OS to nuke it in due time, but as a consumer I appreciate the thoroughness of an uninstaller that leaves no trace.
- sim7c00 3y agohonestly your idea about the tmp dir i think is better than the no trace option. especially given the hacky nature of self deleting stuff. if you have so many uninstallers around that the disk fills up the tmp.dir cleaning would fix it, which is a common first thing to clean when cleaning the filesystem. i like your idea :)
