When you install a program, Windows writes to a file. And the un-
installer uses that info to un-install. Thus, when you move a program
AFTER installing, then windows cannot find it to un-install.
Same principle applies to extra cars or mods...Windows un-installs only the
files that were originally installed as noted in the installation log. Any
extra cars or tracks are left
alone and Windows will 'say' it has deleted everything. But if you try and
throw away the folder, Chances are an error box will appear saying the
folder cannot be deleted since it still contains files.
