Module Delete Does Not Work

[Hawkeye_UK]

Simple question - why when you uninstall a module and erase it from the ED module manager screen does it not actually delete the large folders within mods/aircraft.

 

I noted as i tried a free module over the Christmas period and note that despite removing it from the game, the files remain. 

 

Also i note i've had this before with other modules that i've taken off such as the channel map (poor performance still and because of this it's not been taken up by the MP community so pointless 18Gb having it on the PC).

 

Can you ensure if you delete a module, it deletes,  please.  Just stands out as bad coding to be honest.

Hi Hawkeye. I can't reproduce what you describe. I've uninstalled the Spitfire, Bf-109, Fw-190, P-47, Normandy and Channel modules after the free-to-play period ended, and they've all disappeared from my Mods\ folder. Only the WWII assets folder remains, but it's normal.
