Chocolatey-coreteampackages: choco uninstall python3 does not remove it from the programs and features list

[jbisson]

If you install python and uninstall it, it doesn't remove it from the programs and features list. Not sure if this is a known issue ?

How to reproduce:
choco install python3
choco uninstall python3

see both Python 3.5.1 and Python 3.5.1 Launcher in the windows programs and feature list.

@majkinetor do you know if the recent changes to the python3 package that you did corrected this issue? Thanks!

The uninstaller is gone from Programs & Features too. I am not sure why those additional lines.

@majkinetor perfect, thank you.

@majkinetor answer did not work for me.

What worked for me is uninstalling python package first, then python3. Even though they both are same versions. Idk what is that and this behaviour is totally weird.

Solution:

choco uninstall python
choco uninstall python3
