Calling "RMDIR /r $INSTDIR" isn't safe since it's possible > that the user selected a non-standard installation location like C:\WINDOWS > It looks like the best practice for avoiding this problem is to use the the > uninstall macro located here: > http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Uninstall_only_installed_files > """" -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
