Stefan Seelmann commented on DIRSERVER-1175:
--------------------------------------------
In another thread Mathijs de Groot reported that an similar issue happens on
windows.
1. Install ApacheDS (e.g. to "C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Server\")
2. Install ApacheDS to another folder (e.g. to "C:\Program Files\Apache
Directory Server 2\")
3. Uninstall the second installation and delete the installation folder (in
this case "C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Server 2\")
3. Uninstall the first installation: The uninstaller deletes all files in C:\
like AUTOEXEC.BAT and NTDETECT.COM !!!
