Why does uninstalling DDU leave the Display Driver Uninstaller folder and license.txt file behind until I delete it manually even if not launched after installation?

Thanks for reporting, it is due to a little issue with our installer / uninstaller script.
I will re-upload a fixed one soon

Note, if there is a log folder within the Display Driver Uninstaller folder, both will remain for not loosing the logs.

It still does not delete the empty Display Driver Uninstaller folder itself even if I manually delete the DDU Logs folder and the Settings.xml file and then uninstall the software.

Thanks for testing and reporting this, you are encouraging me to do better.

I'm currently updating the uninstall script so that it will have a checkbox to remove the logs. If ticked it will remove the log folder and also remove the Display Driver Uninstaller folder entirely.

Ill update when it's done. Probably today.

Edit: Installer updated. (clear browser cache if necessary)

Let me know if it's more up to what you would expect.

I updated it today again. Now there is a checkbox for the removal of the settings configuration file too.
So when you check both box, everything including the DDU folder is removed.
