## 2024-04 — The uninstall tool supports .NET 8

On April 22, Microsoft released a new version of the .NET uninstall tool. It finally supports .NET 8. Here is a link to the release notes: <https://github.com/dotnet/cli-lab/releases/tag/1.7.521001>

That's good news. However, it's clear that the .NET uninstall tool is not a viable long-term solution. The tool depends on .NET, making it challenging to work with previews. With the current state of the art, they would have to release a version of the tool for every preview to make it so that it could manage that preview. It doesn't look like it's what's planned.

To be continued.
