Debugging PRTG Enterprise Console Remover

Paessler just released for PRTG a remover for the deprecated Enterprise Console: PRTG Enterprise Console Remover.exe:

You can uninstall standalone installations of the EC via the Windows control panel under Programs and Features.

If the EC was automatically installed as part of a PRTG installation, you can use the PRTG Enterprise Console Removal Tool as of PRTG 20.2.58 to uninstall the EC independently from the PRTG installation.

Click the Windows Start menu and select PRTG Network Monitor, then click Remove PRTG Enterprise Console to remove the EC from your PRTG core server system.

I like to know what programs do => so I traced what actions are done by "PRTG Enterprise Console Remover.exe". This is a screenshot of all the "write" actions with were performed:

The uninstaller checks more paths, registry entries etc, however only those were deleted or modified on my Windows Server 2016 system. I did not have the standalone installation of PRTG Enterprise Console, but the Enterprise Console was automatically installed as part of the PRTG installation.
