Detecting running files when I uninstall ClickOnce Program

Hello, I may not be able to communicate the meaning properly using a translator.
I came over from this link.
I am distributing the program through [ClickOnce].

  1. After I run the program...

  2. Uninstall the program from the [Control Panel].

  3. It is not uninstalled from "AppData\Local\Apps\2.0" because the program is turned on.

This is the problematic way.

To solve this problem...
1. When I uninstall from Control Panel, I must exit the program from [ClickOnce] itself.
or
2. When I uninstall from Control Panel, I must start [My Custom Uninstall Program].

Which of these two methods does Winform support?

@Aceldama-6344, Welcome to Microsoft Q&A, Do you mean that you can not uninstall the clickonce app when you run the app? Then, I want to know if the app is still in the control panel after you clicked the uninstall in the control panel and refresh it

No, it will not be removed from AppData\Local\Apps\2.0.
The moment I uninstall it from the control panel, I must also exit the program. And I must also erase the corresponding project in AppData\Local\Apps\2.0.

@Aceldama-6344, based on my test, there is no problem for me. I can uninstall the app from the control panel even if the app is open. What is your environment about .net framework and visual stduio version?
