Choco deleted my `oh-my-posh` installation whilst uninstalling `neovim 0.9.5` about choco

Can you go back and remove all emojis from your issue? They are not necessary and distract from the issue.

Can you please also amend the title of the issue to be what the problem is?

Can you also provide all the logs requested by the issue template, by amending the original comment and adding them in? Please don't add them as a separate comment.

Without this, we will be unable to look further at the issue.

The problems appear to be that the installation of neovim was detected in the oh-my-posh folder. This can happen if two installations / uninstallations etc. are taking place at the same time (one Chocolatey CLI and one Winget in this case). When Chocolatey CLI looks to take a snapshot of the changed files and registry keys, it will see all changed entries.

When you run the uninstall of neovim the pertinent log lines are:

2024-02-19 13:16:49,652 10028 [DEBUG] -  Preparing uninstall key '"C:\Users\bigboy69\AppData\Local\Programs\oh-my-posh\unins000.exe" /SILENT' for 'Oh My Posh version 19.8.2'

It is actually running the oh-my-posh uninstaller.

The uninstallation scripts run by choco should not fail.

If the package scripts are failing, that is a package issue and you should contact the maintainer.

choco is a different package manager from scoop, apt-cyg and winget.

Scoop is not a package manager. Winget is a manifest / software manager. apt-cyg I have no experience with. So Chocolatey CLI is different.

Hello there,
At least I got a response from a human! Sorry for all that earlier. I believe that the instructions stated that I could add a link to a Gist instead of dumping them all in the issue. I hope the amendments are to your liking. Once more, I'm very sorry for all of that and blessings!

Thanks so much for helping out with this issue. This scared me. I'll contact the Maintainer and not run into the same problem later. Till next time...
