Uninstall only the installed files & folders

It is standard for uninstallations to follow a procedure similar to this: Remove all files that were added during the installation. Then remove all folders that were added during the installation if they are currently empty. The PI Connector for UFL does not follow this procedure. My folder of INI files was in the PI Connector for UFL installation folder. Then I uninstalled the PI Connector for UFL and lost my INI file folder. Luckily, I was able to recover it. Please change the PI Connector for UFL install kit and any other install kits that behave this way to uninstall only the files and folders that they added and not delete any files and folders that the user might have added to these folders.

    I should have been clearer in my suggestion. When the PI Connector For UFL is uninstalled, the entire installation folder is simply deleted. Also, if I remember correctly, the PI Interface For UFL had an INI folder in its installation folder, so anyone migrating from the PI Interface For UFL to the PI Connector For UFL might prefer to keep their INI folder in the installation folder, and then all it takes is for the PI Connector For UFL to be uninstalled for all of the INI files to be lost.
