Can't uninstall Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools

Hi doriandiaconu,
VS and SQL install so may packages that one of them might have been uninstalled in the wrong order and left this as an "orphan." I uninstalled VS and SQL on another PC of mine and the way that I did it was to uninstall all the SQL tools first, then SQL and then VS. If your going to reinstall VS and SQL then it shouldn't matter as the new packages will overwrite the old ones. They might uninstall any offending files as well. You're probably going to be OK.
