Comment #6 on issue 7178 by [email protected]: Registry Keys not removed
when uninstalling
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7178
There are two problems here:
- First we are not deleting extensions related registry entries on
uninstall. I have
a fix under review.
- Second on Vista we do not elevate for uninstall. But if user set Chrome
as default
browser (which requires elevation), it creates registry entries in HKLM
which we can
not delete without elevation. If you right click on Uninstall Chromium and
select
"Run as Administrator" all these entries should get cleaned up properly.
I am not sure if we want to change the uninstaller to prompt user to
elevate on
Vista. Mark do you have an opinion on this?
