Description

mbed Windows installer: mbed CLI v0.3.6-alpha

First I installed mbed CLI without any of the required apps (python, git, hg, gcc)

Later I uninstalled mbed CLI. It only removes mbed-cli and gcc.

Other apps continue to exist (and work) with the corresponding environmental variables: python, git, hg

We could add an option to the uninstaller to remove the apps: python, git, hg, gcc

Research direction

Start by inspecting the Windows installer project's uninstaller configuration and how it handles the installed apps and environment variables named in the report: python, git, hg, and gcc. Done means the uninstall behavior clearly offers or implements removal of those dependencies without leaving their corresponding environment variables behind.
