SYMPTOMS
After you uninstall Software Metering from a Systems Management Server 2.0 client, the following registry key is not deleted, even though an entry in the Clinst.log file notes the key is deleted:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\SMS\Client Components\License Metering\Installation Properties

Because of this, the License Metering status in the Systems Management Server tool in Control Panel may be reported incorrectly.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0.
