First and most important: I still don't understand what your issue is here, since Catpult *does* create an uninstall entry exactly where all other Windows programs do - in the Add/Remove Software section of the Control Panel for Windows. This is the established way to do it and Catapult follows it. As to what the quote leads one to believe - you'd have to agree that it is rather wide subject to personal perception. This is what trial versions are for, so that one can match their expectations against them :-)

Catapult 2.25 will allow you to specify conditional components as well; what 3.0 brings specifically is only the option for mutually exclusive selections (e.g. for differnt display resolutions). I am still not sure that's what you want.
