> Problem: The Windows Cleaner process isn't able to delete files with read-only attribute set.
>  
> (Windows Cleaner is a small C application which is part of *NBI* - NetBeans Installer)
>  
> This is in particular a problem when the uninstaller tries to delete a bundled JRE as the JRE has files with read-only attribute set.
> For the record: this has always been a problem. The Unistaller leaves files behind and the main reason is this. Note that the equivalent on Linux/Mac, the {{cleaner.sh}} script, doesn't suffer from the same problem as it does 'rm -f' operation.
> It is rather trivial to fix. I'll file a PR.
