      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      JDK 1.6.0_10 build 22

      ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
      Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6001]

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      If you installed and uninstall the JDK using the offline installer it leaves behind three files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_10:

      jre.msi
      jre1041.mst
      jre2052.mst

      These files are not removed even after a reboot.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      I am expecting the entire "java" directory to be removed once I uninstall the last JDK
      ACTUAL -
      "java" directory and some files are left behind

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.
