> Is it really necessary to reboot after uninstalling Octave on Windows?

I almost exclusively use the zip package, but I can't think of
anything Octave should be using that would warrant a reboot. It isn't
suspending the uninstall over the reboot and completed actions
afterward (as if a file was in use by the system, etc.), is it?  If
not, I've noticed a number of windows programs that do this by default
for no good reason other than 'just in case'.  too many bad windows
examples of things 'lingering' that I guess it has just become habit
to make up for bad design.
