Right now jDeploy registers an uninstaller on Windows, but it still depends on the jDeploy installer application to do the uninstalling. It would be better if the launcher knew how to uninstall directly without needing the JVM. In addition, we should add full uninstall support on Linux and Mac. We have begun to write manifests of the files that are added, along with CLI command support. We should add support in the launcher to be able to read these manifests and delete the files that were added. No UI necessary.
