When you put a shortcut in the trash Windows always warns that only the shortcut is removed, and not the program itself. He also asks if you really, the user, want to remove the shortcut, or, after all, leave it and not touch it, once you leave the program anyway.
For a beginner, this is the correct warning. But why not just warn, and give users a choice?
You throw a shortcut to the trash, and instead of the standard warning from Windows 98, you are asked a question:
- wish to remove the shortcut without uninstalling the program,
- wish to remove the program along with the shortcut,
- I do not want anything, I chose the wrong file.

And after all, technically it will not make any difficulties. The label is already associated with the executable file. In most cases, the executing file should be associated with the program entry in the registry (not specified). Total, fast and convenient way to remove unwanted program.
In Vista, there were already some improvements in the program’s removal mechanism: the inconvenient window in which there is not even a search improved somewhat. In the seven, this element was left unchanged, but they could also modify the removal of programs, making it even more convenient.
