Hi dukus,

I have test the MPInstaller. It is working great so far.
But I miss a small feature...
... the possibility to remove files (or even complete folders) .

The background for this request:
My WorldMap plugin offers the possibility to configure the urls that are used to download the map tiles. These settings are stored in a separate xml file which is different from the other settings. The idea was to delete this file when I came up with a new version of that plugin. That would make sure that the default urls (that I've updated) are used again.

Deleting Folder would be also handy for skin installation packages (I know that this is a future topic...), because they have to delete cache folder of there skin.

Bye
Lars
