Follow-up Comment #10, bug #58320 (project octave):

For the test, I logged off as the user and logged back in as the same user to
start the uninstall from the "Apps & Features" section of the control panel.

The "InstallLocation" key at that location in HKCU seems to be set correctly:
"C:\Users\Mützel\AppData\Local\GNU Octave\Octave-7.0.0"
Also "UninstallString" seems to be right: "C:\Users\Mützel\AppData\Local\GNU
Octave\Octave-7.0.0\uninstall.exe" /CurrentUser
I can't see a "uninstalllocation" key.

There is no "Octave-7.0.0" at the corresponding location in HKLM.

Maybe the problem is that the user I created contains a non-ASCII umlaut
character. I'll try if I can replicate with a new user with only ASCII
characters.

In the meantime, is it OK to remove the registry keys and the installation
folder to free some disk space?
