I think package manger in linux is way superior than windows, many times i try to remove a program in windows even after removing program icons are still on my taskbar, after installing or removing programs windows ask for restart
That's not a problem with the installer. If you install a program that requires a device driver, you will need to reboot, although this has become a lot better. In that regard, Linux is vastly superior and the whole reboot thing is really aggravating on Windows. I honestly seldom have issues with things staying in the taskbar or icons remaining etc... that usually happens if you create links yourself. The windows installer isn't perfect, but to me, it's pretty much the same as the package manager.
Then again, I usually install programs from the terminal on Linux anyway.
One problem I had is, sometimes applications wouldn't show up in the control panel which would mean I have to uninstall them manually. So in that case, I would be at the mercy of the developer being thoughtful enough to provide an uninstall.exe.
If you install some freeware or more esoteric software, you may end up with it not showing up in the control panel. For the most part, programs will show up in there. Same thing on Linux, if you install stuff like dbeaver, it won't show up in the app panel and you need to run it either from the terminal or create a soft link.
