You may see Auto Uninstaller successfully remove an install, but then it hits the following error:

An error occurred during uninstall:
 String cannot be of zero length.
Parameter name: oldValue

This occurs when there are things that get installed that do not have an uninstall string associated with them (they are just there for information sake). AutoUninstaller should ignore those items.

When there is no uninstall string, auto uninstaller will not be able to
do anything with uninstalling the application. Instead it should note
that it is skipping the uninstall of an application (with the display
name) and continue on.

Also note the display name if available for auto uninstaller
information.
