Native setup uninstallation doesn't remove files from disk

Postby francis.harvey » Tue Feb 17, 2015 2:35 pm

Hi,

I have an issue with my setup where the uninstallation doesn't uninstall my features...

I have a simple project with a master feature and 2 child features. (maybe it is the master/child structure that cause this...?)
The child features are web media blocks, the master feature is a placeholder with no file in it.

When uninstallation is done, files aren't removed from the disk.
Do I need to force the deletion in Advanced Options => Local Files ?

What happens during 'Apply Uninstall' ? Nothing seems to be done...
In the uninstall region, I have 'Apply Uninstall' and 'Set Variable progress'

Thanks
Francis Harvey

Re-creating the project from scratch seems to fix the issue,
Probably caused by a manipulation error...

Thanks
