Wine 3.0-rc3 console output

The uninstall that comes with SlingPlayer 1.5 claims to complete (far too
quickly) but no files are actually removed. Running wineboot afterwards makes
no difference.

This bug goes way back and is not a regression.

Forgot to add: uninstall ran from within wine uninstaller.

No change in Wine 7.9, except I've noticed it does remove ONE file:
%ProgramFiles%\Sling Media\SlingPlayer\SBCore.ini

Subsequent runs doesn't remove any more files.
