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.
