---------------------------------------------------

Sorry for the inconvenience Mathijs... :(

I'm afraid this bug is related to framework we use to build the Windows installer: NSIS.

I'll have a look as soon as possible.

> On the mailing list, Mathijs de Groot reported that the Windows Installer corrupts Windows when uninstalling.
> 1. Install ApacheDS (e.g. to "C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Server\")
> 2. Install ApacheDS to another folder (e.g. to "C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Server 2\")
> 3. Uninstall the second installation and delete the installation folder (in this case "C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Server 2\")
> 3. Uninstall the first installation: The uninstaller deletes all files in C:\ like AUTOEXEC.BAT and NTDETECT.COM !!!
