Re: [JAWS-Users] need help uninstalling a program
I figured JAWS may not be the only program that has shared components, so I thought I'd check. Heretofore, I just used the Office uninstall routines. I May do it by degrees, Tim--take off 2003 first, then 2007. I don't know why I worry with the size of today's drives, but I just like to keep it neat. I started with a 10MB drive years ago, and I thought that was The Ponderosa. I still had empty space when I discontinued that good old XT.

Kevin, I'm coming in late on this, and I haven't tried to completely uninstall my version of Io Bit 6 Advanced. But, to confirm, have you completed the following steps? 1. Select Uninstall IOBit. 2. A dialog will appear offering you a free trial of the Pro version. 3. In order to see the Uninstall and Cancel buttons, you may need to use Convenient OCR. That's what I had to do. 4.

Re: [JAWS-Users] need help uninstalling a program
Hi Alan, I've been using this little gem for several years now really like it. I always use the advanced mode to guarantee myself of getting rid of deeply imbedded files installed by a program that Windows would never think of reaching. Take care.

I am wondering if this program does a better job than just the standard Windows UnInstaller? I'm not sure windows does as complete a job as this describes. What is your experience?

You need to use first letter navigation to do this or, use your arrow keys because I haven't found a way to put all the programs into list view. 2. With the program highlighted that you want to remove, open the context menu and press enter on uninstall. You will get a dialogue asking if you're sure you want to remove this program, tab to the yes option press the spacebar. 3. Now it's time to choose the level at which revo uninstaller does its job. So, Shift + tab, into the options list. you have 4 modes Built-in, Safe, Moderate, Advanced. I always choose advanced because some programs love to leave registry entries and little traces of themselves everywhere. These are radio buttons, so just choose the appropriate one. 4. Hit the next button and Revo will go to work and uninstall your program, so sit back for a minute or two. 5. This is when the fun really starts. After you hit the next button, Revo will display a number of left over files and registry entries from the program.hit the tab key and you should find a select all button, and a delete button. so first hit select all, followed by delete. You'll get a warning asking if you really want to do this? Answer yes. It'll then delete any files left over. Now depending on how the program is, it may next ask you to delete registry entries, this is the same as left over files. Don't worry, this is safe to do because it only deletes the registry entries that are for the application you're uninstalling, it won't delete anything else but that. So do the select all and delete thing again and answer yes. Sometimes, you might even see a screen that just has a tree view, but it has nothing displayed. In that case just do what you would normally do and hit select all and delete and that'll do it. After all that is done revo will display a dialogue with a finish button.

Re: [JAWS-Users] need help uninstalling a program
Just a note on uninstalling programs, even though it is usually done from a Windows applet, many times the uninstaller being used is one supplied by the software developer. Sometimes you can find an uninstall option in the folder the program places on the start menu. Having said that, many programs do a poor job of cleaning up after themselves, and this is where a good third-party un-installer comes in handy.
