Summary: SetShellVarContext has problem in Win98 SE when uninstall

Initial Comment:
NSIS Version 2.0
Test Platform: Windows XP (en), Windows 98 SE (cn)

1. Set "SetShellVarContext all" in both install and 
uninstall sections. Add a *.lnk to $DESKTOP, and add 
some *.lnks to $SMPROGRAMS; Remove these *.lnks in 
uninstall section.

2. In Windows 2000/XP all ok

3. In Windows 98 SE while install:
a. $SMPROGRAMS refers to Windows\Startup...
b. $DESKTOP refers to Windows\All Users\Desktop...
So, why not the 2 $xxx point to same user group?

4. In Windows 98 SE while uninstall:
a. found *.lnks in $SMPROGRAMS(Windows\Startup...) 
and deleted
b. not found *.lnk in $DESKTOP(Windows\All 
Users\Desktop...), the *.lnk still on the desktop
If, "All Users" is fake in Win9X, why support it in install 
section and unsupport in uninstall section?

Anyone has time, pls do some tests on different OS; If 
its my fault in testing pls let me know  -;=
