    Hello,

    I am writing the install and uninstall components for my software using QTIFW.

    When I uninstall, currently the program and all of it's created data in AppData/roaming/ is removed.

    I would like to specify in the install script that certain directories and files should not be deleted during the uninstall, specifically the user's created data in AppData/roaming/

    There doesn't appear to be any way to do this, although this bug report (https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTIFW-596) suggests that the feature was implemented late 2014.

    I cannot find anything in the Qt Installer Framework documentation explaining how to do this (there is addition and removal of components only). If instructions do exist, could somebody please direct me to them?
