Issue

After uninstalling a previously installed version of ecu.test or trace.check, I notice that not all of the disk space is freed up.

...

  • ecu.test or trace.check stores several data locally. For instance, cached bus data bases are used across workspaces and thus need to be saved outside of it.
    The exact storage location depends on your operating system and user specific or computer specific settings.
    The default locations can be found in the help under Help/ECU-TEST-Help/Workspace / Dateiverwaltung/Lokale_Daten.htmlFile management / Local data within the installation directory of ecu.test.

  • Per default configuration in Microsoft Windows our products ecu.test and trace.check are installed within C:\Program Files if the installer is executed with administrator privileges. 
    Otherwise the program files are stored in %LocalAppData% per default.

  • It is strongly recommended not to simply delete these files, but to use the uninstaller instead (e.g. via the Start menu or using Windows Settings > Apps & features).
