These I was aware of — still see no good reason for Atom to do that, also almost no other apps do that, but oh well.\r\nBut then I've discovered another double-Atom buried in the `\\AppData\\Local\\SquirrelTemp` in nondescript \"tempb\" and \"tempe\" folders.\r\nThat's just ridiculous. With such a bad installation/upgrade design I'd rather go back to clicking one UAC prompt per upgrade rather than having the silent \"convenience\" of quadruple app!\r\n\r\nIs there an option somewhere that I could enable to get rid of all this unnecessary quadruplication and go back to having just one and only one app — the latest version I'm using?\r\nThank you\r\n\r\nWindows 10 x64\r\nAtom versions app-1.6.2 and app-1.5.3 (plus whatever versions are left in the Squirrel folder)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/comments/214442734","html_url":"https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/11586#issuecomment-214442734","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/11586","id":214442734,"user":{"login":"paulcbetts","id":1396,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1396?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts","html_url":"https://github.com/paulcbetts","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/paulcbetts/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-04-25T17:04:00Z","updated_at":"2016-04-25T17:04:00Z","body":"afaik it gets cleaned up in the C# side"}}
