I've got the question

https://superuser.com/questions/1651185/does-windows-have-any-protection-against-programs-that-refuse-to-uninstall (deleted automatically by Community, only for 10K+ users)

... that was marked as "off topic". I can't understand why.

  • The tour says nothing about the Windows Registry being off-topic.
  • The tour says I should ask about:
    • Specific issues with computer software, hardware or networking (yes, this is an issue with computer software)
    • Real problems or questions that you’ve encountered (yes, this is a real problem!)
  • They also say to not ask about:
    • Questions that are primarily opinion-based
    • Questions with too many possible answers or require an extremely long answer
    • Videogames, consoles, or other electronic devices, unless they connect to your computer
    • Websites or web services like Google, Facebook, Twitter, and WordPress
    • Shopping, buying or product recommendations
    • Issues specific to corporate IT support and networks
  • None of these describe my question.

So why is it off-topic?
