I have two installations. One an upgrade of the other. If the user decides to install this upgrade into the same location as the previous version, then I have created actions that back up specfied folders. Anytime this upgrade is run and installed in the same location, then further backup folders are created.

This all works fine. But when I run the uninstaller, not all the file folders are removed. Obviously, it is understood why the backup folders are not removed. But I also have another folder that was not removed but was part of the installation. Is this a bug that's caused because I have these backup actions?

Are there any files in this folder that does not get deleted? I know that, by default, ISMP will not delete files that have been modified after they were installed. You can change this behavior by changing the removeOption property of your product and/or features/components.
