    WilleHelm - 2025-05-18

    Hi again,
    this may be an old hat, but I would like to point it out for once.
    I'm still using Windows 10 x64 22H2 by the way.

    Scenario 1:
    INSTALL: install.bat /silent
    UNINSTALL: via "Apps and Features" (Win10)

    Does not remove the following:
    .) %ProgramFiles%\AIM Toolkit including all files
    .) Windows service DevIO server service (deviosvc)

    Scenario 2:
    INSTALL: install.bat /silent
    UNINSTALL: install.bat /silentuninstall

    Does not remove the following:
    .) same as above
    .) additionally all links/shortcuts in the Start Menu and on the Desktop
    (but it is gone in "Apps and Features")

    Regards,
    WilleHelm

    Thanks for the report. Yes, the files are not removed. I will check that.

    I just prepared some fixes about that (I will upload that very soon), but I have to tell that the uninstaller is intended to be run from the installed folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\AIM Toolkit), not the installation package.
    Using "install.bat /silentuninstall" will just product unexpected effects. The syntax help was not clear about that.
