SYMPTOMS

When you use Remove Programs to remove a program from a Palm-size PC (P/PC), files or folders may remain in the Windows\Appmgr folder.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because Remove Programs saves installation information for the most recently removed program in the Windows\Appmgr folder.

Additional query words: uninstall delete
