Uninstallation bug

Postby markokrajnc » Tue Aug 19, 2008 10:19 pm

I installed WBPro 6.7.0 over WBPro 6.4.0. WBPro 6.4.0 files were deleted, but the entry is still found in Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs and can not be deleted.

That is odd. Those entries should be removed at the same time (unless something else was preventing registry updates at that point).

You can manually remove the 6.4.0 entry by manually deleting the following key (and subentries) from the registry...

Code: Select all
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\WBPro 6.4.0
