I never expected users to save their programs in the program directory of GNUSim8085. I thought this is what 'My Documents' folder is for. :-) I will not fix this before 1.3.7. I have to check what kind of logic I can add in uninstaller for checking unexpected files in program folder.
-- critical bug (data loss!) when uninstalling on Windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/680426 You received this bug notification because you are a member of GNUSim8085 developers, which is subscribed to gnusim8085. Status in gnusim8085: New Bug description: on Windows, the uninstallation routine seems to be deleting the whole GNUSim8085 directory, regardless of it containing changes to any files or even completely new files. This is a highly critical bug, as people could possibly lose their source code/modifications this way. The right thing to do here would be asking the user if s/he wants to retain modified/new files, and to refrain from deleting directories that contain modifications or new files. This is the standard procedure used by other Windows installers. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~gnusim8085-devel Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~gnusim8085-devel More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
