I installed in d:\games and didn't pay attention that it was not installing in a sub-folder of \games. I decide to uninstall and reinstall into a sub-folder. I run the uninstaller, to my horror, the entire \games folder is deleted before I can figure out how to stop the uninstaller.

Ridiculous.

    This is how almost all uninstaller works...

    No, most uninstallers only delete what the installer installed.

    So I had before
    D:\games\game1\ D:\games\game2\ D:\games\game3\ D:\games\game4\ and installed x-moto into D:\games
    then uninstalled x-moto, every game listed gets deleted, not uninstalled!

    You should put delete folder 'D:\games'? instead of uninstall x-moto

    if I had installed x-moto into c:\ and uninstalled it, bye bye system.
