For the measured winget installation, this command runs the package’s uninstall flow.
winget uninstall --id Huawei.Welink --exact
Check the result
Get-Process -Name 'WeLink' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
winget list --id Huawei.Welink --exact
Test-Path "$env:APPDATA\WeLink"
No process output means no matching process was observed. A completed installation query with no match means the measured registration is absent; a query error does not prove removal. Test-Path returns True when the path remains and False when absent. True is expected when retaining data.
What Mole lists
The program folder, shortcuts, app-owned protocol registrations and startup entry are selected; registrations are backed up before removal. %APPDATA%\WeLink is unchecked, while Cache, Code Cache, DawnCache and GPUCache are separate selected rows. The startup switch was tested On, Off, On and restored. Firewall rules are reported only; Huawei\hwmSdk was retained because exclusive ownership was not established.
What this test covered
