-=PCTechTalk=- Re: spybot - uninstall?

what does the default installation have to do with it? 
you mean, that even though I deliberately install it into a folder, 
it  or the parts that I need would be somewhere else?
I'll try the install tomorrow - thanks!

Hi Cris,
yes reinstalling the program you are tying to remove will often work.

It gives you a chance to see where the default installation is going.

is
what the forums told me to look for.
and - I can't get my fix it program to run either. it starts, and shuts
down. I
use it for a registry checker.

maybe I'll try re-installing my old spybot 1.2 over the one that is on
here. and
see if any uninstall files show up.
and - I can re-install my fix it program too - so that I can check the
registry.

Thanks for trying!!
Cris

Hi Cris,
this won't help you now, but when I download a program I create a folder
called the same name.
I used SS&D for Spybot Search & Destroy.
I download the program to that folder then close the download and check the
file with my AV program.
Then I install it to the same folder so that I know where it is.
It makes trouble sooting a lot easier.

If you check the SS&D forums someone may have an answer to where it saves
it's files.
