What you suggest falls out of GNU Make's territory, once you've installed, you are the one responsible for those files, and GNU Make doesn't keep track of them. [ Notice GNU Make doesn't even create those install dirs, it's done manually by make_gnu.bat. ] We have the HB_INSTALL_PREFIX (and HB_*_INSTALL) options exactly to supply such an empty dir which can receive the final files. I for example use to simply delete those dir completely if I'd like to "clean" my install dirs. All this is normal and standard make behaviour for most projects (including Harbour's both make systems). Brgds, Viktor
