I want to uninstall a game, specifically Knights of the Old Republic 2. I hired it so I don't have a copy of it on me. When I try to uninstall I get an error and the uninstaller closes. So how can I uninstall a game when this happens? This has actually happened to me before with Oblivion but luckily there was a guide on the net showing how to do it. Do I just delete all the files on my computer then delete any registry entries for Kotor or Lucasarts?

im not sure but maybe Delete the Folder and remove game menu from start menu, but it'll still be listed as if its installed. Thats about all i know.

[fade2black2004]

have you tried going through the control panel and add/remove programs?

1. Go to the directory of the install.

2. Manually delete the folder.

3. Download & install CCleaner.

4. Open CCleaner and go to tools section.

5. Highlight the program which you wish to uninstall.

6. Delete entry.

Fade is right in that you should try using Add/Remove Programs first. Deleting the folder and such will leave a lot of crap in your registry.

Then I would even go so far as to search for files, folders that might be in a spot you have not looked... then you might also want to use ccleaner to look for issues (registry keys) that might have been used for the game.

Yeah I tried the add/remove programs, that's the first thing I always do but it just runs the same uninstaller as the uninstall shortcut. I'll give ccleaner a go, it will delete any registry entries the game left?

If you manually delete the files, the registry will still have it listed. I personally never used ccleaner, but I believe that works.

yeah id also try going the add/remove programmes route, if that fails aswell then delete the folder manually and then use ccleaner to delete registry entries

Reinstall windows I kid I kid, but add/remove programs in the control panel is usually the best bet, most programs dont require the disk to uninstall.
