SP2 install, some leftovers

[Alexander Milenz]

After installing SP2 on a PC I noticed that all Hotfix entries have
disappeared from the 'Software','Uninstall' list, but sadly not their
uninstall directories from %windir%.
So right now, I've got a ton of '$NtUninstallQxxxxxx$' directories floating
around that I'd really like to get rid of - and I'm wondering a little bit,
if SP2 shouldn't have gotten rid of them all by itself ;(

Did something screw up in my install or is this 'working as intended'? If
so, is there a list of all the hosfixes included in SP2, so I can manually
get rid of the unneeded backup directories?

Alex,

this works as intended. The reason is that you might uninstall
SP2, and then you regain the choices to uninstall the former
patches, one by one.

As to the best way of removing that possibility along with the
files, give me a little more time. SP2 is still new. Or maybe
somebody has complete information already. In that case, please
chime in.
