Hi!  
I know this, but what I will achive is to remove for example the xml and db file for the registered background services. The service caches there the metrics. After the service is unregistered and the framework service is restarted, the files are continuously kept there. I could delete them using with simple remove-Item, but maybe it damages something. I hope there is any tool inside the framework, which cleans these data/files.
