The odd part is just the the amount of extra work you have to do to get
all the files removed. dBASE doesn't just install things to a single
folder, the files appear to be scattered (it has to do more with how
Windows wants things to work, but dBASE complies to all that). If you
read the instructions I posted to Donald you will see they are in a lot
of different folders, and for a complete uninstall there's extra work
involved, rather than just running the uninstall program.
