I recently had to remove a virus (actually hundreds) from a friend's machine by kicking his hard disc back to the stone age. As I'm not yet able to convince him of the merits of Linux, I had to re-install Windows ME and I thought it would be good to introduce him to Inkscape.
As is probably well known to everyone other than me, this is apparently not possible because of GTK+ requirements and the installation failed. However it didn't fail tidily and the first indication that something was wrong was when I tried to start the apparently installed application.
Obviously I needed to un-install the package, but couldn't do it easily because there was no entry in the Control Panel|Add or Remove Programs table. In consequence I had to clear the Inkscape components manually, including the Registry. If some versions of Windows are not supported I would have expected the Windows installer to check its environment before creating directories, Registry entries, Icons etc.?
Do I need to raise a bug, or is this issue already known?
