Overview

When an application is uninstalled, it may still be in the list of installed applications. The application files are removed from the device.

Description

The application's .sis stub file may remain in the System\install directory after uninstallation if the package file contains a GUI application and a recognizer.

How to reproduce

Create a package file containing at least an .app file and a recognizer:
; problem.pkg
;
;Language - standard language definitions
&EN

; standard SIS file header

1. {"AppwithRecog"},(0x07CA3060),1,0,0, TYPE=SA
   
   ;Supports Series 80 v 2.0
   (0x101F8ED2), 0, 0, 0, {"Series80ProductID"}
   
   "\epoc32\release\armi\urel\SomeApplication.app"-"c:\system\apps\SomeApplication \SomeApplication.app"
   
   "\epoc32\release\armi\urel\SomeRec.mdl"- "c:\system\recogs\SomeRec.mdl"
