Guest

ok, some time ago i installed a copy of SWGB (Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds)

i was then messing arround with my files one day, now when i try to
uninstall it, it wont let me, i can't even play on it. this is very
frustrating. Will anyone who knows of perhaps some way i can uninstall it
please respond. Replies will be greatly appreciated.

p.s i think the fact i cant play/unintall it is because i moved or deleted
some file.

Hi Teasel,

Here's how to uninstall a game when using Add-Remove programs fails:

Step A: Start your computer in Safe Mode by holding down the F8 key.

Step B: Reinstall the game to the same folder it was installed to originally,
and then try to uninstall it again using Add-Remove programs. If
that fails, delete it's folder and any save games in My Documents.

Step C: Install and Run Regcleaner and if it finds any stray registry keys for the
game, delete them: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download460.html

Another good program to use is CCleaner...

http://www.ccleaner.com

Just make sure you install it without the Yahoo! toolbar. You can use this
program to get rid extra temp files that gunk up your computer. It also has
a registry cleaner (with backup feature) as well as its own Add/Remove
utility.

Good luck, Teasel!
