Buggy uninstallation
Oh my!
from
Stardock Forums
I have installed objectdesktop to try a theme I saw on digg, when uninstalling I got the "Cannot find INSTALL.LOG" error.
The install.log was in the right place and by invoking unwise.exe install.log from the objectdesktop directory it uninstalled fine.
Also I found that the installer created an empty start menu folder called "Object Desktop" along with the correct "StarDock" folder that shouldn't have ever been there.
I remember I installed/uninstalled objectdesktop a few years ago and I had the same problem with the uninstaller: why don't you change installer to something more serious like windows installer or NSIS if it's all that bad? As long as I could see it relies even on batch files (because while reinstalling I got errors about missing .bat files)!
