Thanks for testing.  Much appreciated!

This uninstaller icon issue is a problem with the default template in
NBPackage 
https://github.com/apache/netbeans-nbpackage/blob/master/src/main/resources/org/apache/netbeans/nbpackage/innosetup/InnoSetup.iss.template
 I had noticed this with an earlier community installer.  I'm not sure
if something changed with how Windows finds icons for this page.

I think we need to explicitly configure
https://jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php?topic=setup_uninstalldisplayicon
and perhaps the related display text.

I'm collating a bunch of issues to work on and get a new release of
NBPackage out before we come to build for NB27.  This template, as
with all the templates, is overridable but I'd rather not make that
change now and do some more testing first.

Best wishes,

Neil
