When installing dmd it will pop up a message box asking you to deinstall the old version. During that uninstall a new messagebox was added to warn that the whole dmd2 folder will be deleted. When the uninstall is finished and one clicks next on the installer, that warn box will pop up again.

Seems like the uninstaller is called twice, first to uninstall dmd, then to remove itself. That doesn't really seem necessary though.
