The install.log file windows is looking for is one created when
an application is installed. It is a text file of all the changes
made by the program so the windows uninstaller program can find
and remove the files, directories and registry entries added by
the program. In my case it is located in the Legacy installation
folder. If this file is truly deleted then you may be out of luck
in removing the application from your system.
If you like I can send you, off the list, a copy of the install
log file for my version 5 of Legacy and a listing of the registry
entries in the uninstall section of the registry to activate an
uninstall. This will only work though if you installed your
Legacy 5 in the same directory as I did. If your legacy is in
another location you will have to amend the install log file
directories to point to your locations. I should also point out
that my version of Windows is 98 SE so there may be location
differences between my version and your Windows XP Home.

I'm having a problem uninstalling Legacy from my laptop which is running
Windows XP Home. When I click "Change/Remove" it gives me the following
message: "Could not open INSTALL.LOG file." I got this error when I tried
to uninstall V5. I then installed V6 and it installed ok and V5 was gone. I
thought maybe this would resolve the problem but I'm still getting the error
when I try to uninstall V6.
If anyone has a suggection I would appreaciate it.
