Ok, this is not a blocker since it occured before. It looks like it's leaving an empty sdk directory because something in that directory is locked during the uninstall.

RM/FilesInUse is expected behavior when doing upgrades and files are being used. Restarts depend on the SIDs associated with running the update and the application being used, whether applications have implemented any RM protocols, the type of application (windowed or console), global policy settings for MSIs and restarts, and whether or not the application was registered.

Old issue triage: If you do a build right before installed, the dotnet host is left running and is shared across installs preventing the uninstall. There is no good solution for us.
