Are unique Guids set for each installed file, particularly the ones that aren't 
being uninstalled? 

That might not explain why it works on one OS and not another though.

I remove all files then do a fresh clean install of the bundle and then a 
uninstall of the bundle and some of the files are left.

This only happens on Windows XP, Windows 8 cleans up everything


Thank you,

Many reasons, one of which is because they were created by the application as 
it was running on the client machine, and weren't a
part of the original installation package.

We'd need more details to help much more.

Why would some files be left after the uninstall??
