Summary: IMVU 3D Instant Messenger not visible in wine's uninstaller Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: Other URL: http://www.imvu.com OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: Speeddymon@gmail.com
Just like the summary says. type uninstaller on the command line and IMVU is not listed.
To make it perfectly clear, this is not a problem with the IMVU uninstaller. This is a problem with the WINE uninstaller program located at ~/wine-git/programs/uninstaller
It does not look thru the Current User key for uninstall information. The program is perfectly uninstallable from any uninstall shortcut or if you type the command to uninstall this program on the command line.
To reproduce: Download IMVU from imvu.com
Install it
Open a console session and type 'uninstaller' if you have BINFMT_MISC or 'wine uninstaller' if you dont.
Look at the list. IMVU is not listed there.
Close that program, and open regedit.
Navigate to HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Uninstall
Look at the only subkey there.. It is IMVU
