Removing Microsoft Outlook from the system
Hi Bat Users, I have a little problem. Somehow MS Outlook keeps associating itself with files from type EML. I do not use Outlook and I have TB associate itself with EML files each time. I guess the best way would be to remove Outlook al together, but I cant find it in the add/remove program option. Does anyone know what I can do about this behavior, or how to remove Outlook al together? -- Best regards, Gerard Insert Cookie Here-- Undocumented Opcode: RST - Rewind and stretch tape Windows 2000 Professional with TB Version 1.53d -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Does anyone know what I can do about this behavior, or how to remove Outlook al together? This is becoming a common problem; if you install a number of media players (eg Winamp and RealOne) you'll find that each of them load a little utility at startup to grab hold of their file extensions before Microsoft Media Player does so. Bizarre but true. Outlook or Outlook Express? If Outlook, remove it using the Office installation utility ;) Outlook Express is entirely different. If you have later versions of Windows (I have XP here) you can't remove it cleanly; there is nothing in the Control Panel to do so and it is tied in with Windows so deleting files may be dangerous. With earlier versions (eg my office machine, which has Windows 95), it _does_ have a Control Panel add/remove entry for Outlook Express.
