Leftovers still present on the system

[yashgorana]

BCUninstaller doesn't detect and remove leftover app directories in %PROGRAMDATA% %APPDATA% or dot-folders in home directory. Example:

• After uninstalling GOG Galaxy through BCU I can still find the following leftover directories:
  • %PROGRAMDATA%/GOG.com
  • %LOCALAPPDATA%/GOG.com
• Removing VS Code does not remove ~/.vscode directory. Same for Docker Desktop ~/.docker

OS: Windows 11 22621
BCU Version: 5.7

hi @yashgorana
did you check the "leftover removal" dialog and enable "show questionable" things?

like shown in screenshot here:

• estimated size doesn't consider $LOCALAPPDATA directories? #557 (comment)

你好@yashgorana 您是否檢查了「剩餘物清除」？對話框並啟用“顯示有問題”事物？

就像這裡的螢幕截圖所示：

• 估計大小不考慮$LOCALAPPDATA目錄？ #557（評論）

That ...

The remaining content exists in the "cannot be deleted without system administrator rights" ...

What to do about this problem?

[goyalyashpal]

The remaining content exists in the "cannot be deleted without system administrator rights" ...

see this:

BCU already runs as admin only, and all commands/applications it runs also run as admin as a result. There's no easy way to gain even higher privileges ...
