Improve uninstaller to not leave folders and registry keys behind

Currently when you perform an uninstall of Trados Studio, it does not remove all registry entries and leaves folders in Program Files and AppData.
The uninstaller should be improved to not leave a mess behind.

Here is an example of what happens due to leftover registry keys:

  • I agree. Dragon, for example, has a separate "Cleaner" tool that eliminates all traces of Dragon when the normal uninstall is not enough. It takes longer to reinstall after using the "Cleaner", because all the settings have to be re-entered, but sometimes there are bugs that just don't go away unless you start from scratch.
