I’ve not been a huge fan of either software installers or uninstallers, but understand the need for installers. Recently I tried out a program on my Linux box and used the installer to install it; I was unimpressed with the software and the mess it scattered over my drive. I looked around, but couldn’t find an uninstaller. Maybe I deleted it trying to quickly recover from what it had done or maybe it didn’t come with one. If it didn’t come with one, it should have. It took me awhile to remove what it installed and then it wasn’t until a day later that I discovered it changed some of my system files. Luckily I had backups of those and was able to restore them. Hopefully I’ll no longer complain about shipping a product with an uninstaller as I now know firsthand how hard it is to remove some programs.
