When this guy Robert responded to one of my questions with And what the hell
good would that do? I had no idea what he was referring to. That's what
happens when someone butts in in the middle of a thread.
I began this thread by asking if anyone had a problem of removing a version
of eset security suite on a machine running Vista home premium edition. The
reason I was removing it was because I wanted to upgrade the software to the
current version 4.2. Eset made it quite clear that it was best to totally
remove the previous version and do a clean install. They also made it clear
some systems running Vista and I believe windows 7 may need a removal tool
if you were were unsuccessful using the uninstall engine in the eset program
folder. So, I made 2 different attemps to uninstall eset from my system.
First I tried removing it by going to programs, to eset, open the eset
folder, then click on the uninstall engine. Towards the end of the
uninstall procedure an error message came up stating that 2 files were still
running and the uninstall was aborted or . So next I unloaded eset in the
system tray thinking this would totally shut down eset, but after trying to
uninstall it again, I ran into the same problem.
So the only other alternative I found on Eset support page was a removal
tool that can only be ram in safe mode which would be rather difficult
without wineyes if the uninstall prompted you during the procedure.

Well, imaging software allows you to go back to a good known working
condition before mis-behaving software is installed which forces you
to go in to safe mode to remove.
That is, providing, you used it to make an image.
This is good practice for anyone doing any kind of upgrade, or making
any change which might cause this sort of problem.

That is why, boys and girls, it is so important to keep your trusty
disk imaging software handy.

Has anyone else had a problem removing the software so you can
get the latest release? Eset recommends removing old version
and doing a clean installation. I've been unsuccessful removing
it under window vista premium home edition. Someone on this
list stated they ran the installation right over the previous
version,but I don't want to this as Eset don't recommend it.
