      The Docs and Examples of "older" Qt Version are still in the Qt folder used by the online maintenance tool.

      I wanted to remove the Qt 5.5.1 version and add the 5.6.0 version for the same compiler set (mingw).
      So in "Komponenten hinzufügen oder entfernen" (add and remove) I deselected the Qt 5.5.1(to remove it) and selected the Qt 5.6.0 to add it.

      As I did not select / deselect any docs or examples (there is no such option) I think the docs and examples come along with the Qt version added.

      It looks as if the deselection removes the per-compiled binaries but forgets to remove the associated docs and examples.

      Please see the attached components.xml and the installation.log

      I think the old Docs and Examples should be removed.

      The old 5.5 docs are still found by QtCreator... making selection of index hits in the help unnecessary complicated: E.g. if you look for QString and you doubleclick the found QString a new panel comes up and asks, if you want the manual of Qt 5.5 (binaries not there anymore on the system) or Qt 5.6
