NPackd creates folders everywhere -.- #202

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

30 minutes ago I installed Game Maker, This was installed in my home folder. 

Then install a program with Npackd (Free .NET decompiler), and, surprise! 

In "C:\Users\LUCIANO\GameMaker-Studio 1.0" folder appeared ".Npackd" with 
"uninstall.bat".... WHY?

Why in every installation appears the ".Npackd" folder?

I think that should appear only when the program was installed using npackd

hi,

1.17.9 also "sees" the programs installed from outside and allows their 
removal. Here is the whole list of changes: 
http://code.google.com/p/windows-package-manager/wiki/WhatIsNewInNpackd1_17 . 
To allow this removal Npackd reads the corresponding command from the Windows 
registry or from the MSI database and stores the command in 
.Npackd\Uninstall.bat. This means you can search for "GameMaker" in Npackd, 
select the program and press the "Uninstall" button.
