Updates: Status: Started Cc: m...@chromium.org Comment #6 on issue 7178 by kuch...@chromium.org: Registry Keys not removed when uninstalling http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7178
There are two problems here: - First we are not deleting extensions related registry entries on uninstall. I have a fix under review. - Second on Vista we do not elevate for uninstall. But if user set Chrome as default browser (which requires elevation), it creates registry entries in HKLM which we can not delete without elevation. If you right click on Uninstall Chromium and select "Run as Administrator" all these entries should get cleaned up properly. I am not sure if we want to change the uninstaller to prompt user to elevate on Vista.
