All references to [INSTALLDIR]\data and it's sub-folders are expected because the installer initially copies them but does not remove them. This is by design and a safety mechanism meant to prevent accidental removal of these files. After installing and uninstalling MySQL 5.0.51b, the only other hits I found for 'MySQL' in the registry were in the following locations HKU\<GUID>\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache and will be present because the MySQL Config Wizard was run. This is a cache of applications that have been run and is managed by Windows.
