Incomplete Uninstallation using InstallAnywhere
Hi,
I am using InstallAnywhere 2018 version 19.0 to install my application.But when I try to uninstall it, it's not deleting all the folders it has installed.
Is there any other way to forcibly delete the folders during uninstallation.
Please help.

I've seen this happen when a file that IA did not install exists in a directory. For instance, if your install has a directory c:\foo that contains 10 files, if you add a readme.txt to the c:\foo directory manually, IA will remove the files it installed, but leave c:\foo behind as c:\foo\readme.txt still exists.
