UNINSTALL and DELOLDOS Don't Remove Directories (96937)
The information in this article applies to:

This article was previously published under Q96937 SYMPTOMS
If you use a directory name other than the default directory name for
MS-DOS (C:\DOS), the commands UNINSTALL and DELOLDOS may have difficulty
finding and removing the appropriate directories. Also, MS-DOS Setup may
not put your previous MS-DOS files in the appropriate OLD_DOS.<X> directory
(where <X> is a number based on the number of OLD_DOS directories that have
not been removed).
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in MS-DOS version 6.0, 6.2,
and 6.21. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
