Itom does not uninstall completly. After uninstallation residue file remain.
Tested on Win11

Remaining files and folders:

I think that it would be OK to completely delelte all these folders and their content in the uninstall step of the inno setup. Of course it might be that someone manually saved additional files in one of these folders, which would be lost then. However I guess that this is acceptable.

The step would be something like this:

‌

[UninstallDelete]
Type: filesandordirs; Name: "{app}\__pycache__"

However, please also consider the thoughts of the inno setup documentation: https://jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php?topic=uninstalldeletesection

Maybe, it would be worth to make the uninstall steps a little bit more restrictive, such that no problem will occur if somebody installed itom to a special directory like C:/Windows.

Hi Robin,
please take a look at this ticket. You are most familiar w. the windows installer.
Do you have time to fix this bug?

In case of uninstallation a warning message would be ideal that files might be lost and the user might choose to keep certain folders, such as the python package folder.
But at the moment it seems, as if the uninstallation process is just fragmentary.
