How win.ini and system.ini Are Modified at Removal

All entries contained in the ascnnnn.sxp file of the application to be uninstalled are removed from the config.sys file if they are not needed by other applications installed on the target computer.

The following exceptions apply:

Load and run entries

The load and run entries in the [windows] section of the win.ini file do not have a corresponding entry in the installation file; therefore, they are not removed.

[386Enh] section

The drivers (entry: device=) are deleted that were written to the [386Enh] section in the system.ini file by the application that is being removed.
