"If /REBOOTOK is specified and the file cannot be deleted then the file is deleted when the system reboots -- if the file will be deleted on a reboot, the reboot flag will be set." -NSIS Scripting Reference

The Directory is empty after uninstall.
There are no write-protected or systemfiles etc...
(The files which created at runtime are 3 txt and 2 ini files...)
I dont think that there is a reboot is neccasary. Isn´t it?

I added the fallowing line to the sript

Delete "$INSTDIR\uninst.exe" //original
Delete "$INSTDIR\Creator.exe" //original
Delete "$INSTDIR\*.*" //added line

The folder should deleted with the command

RMDir "$INSTDIR"

But this dosnt work...

Any other ideas?

I've read (unofficial confirmation) that this is a bug in 2.08. Try 2.07 instead.
