Unable to uninstall FSX and FSX SDK

Postby gordie3640 » Thu Mar 09, 2017 3:38 pm

Starting with disk 1, I chose "remove" and a little later, it said "uninstalled successfully." I restart the system and went to see if FSX was gone. It isn't. What's up?

Were you logged on with an administrator-level user account? Which version of Windows?

Did you use Program and Features in Control Panel to uninstall? That's probably the best way to get it done. Reboot before and after uninstalling, as you probably well know.

When you say, it's still there, what does that mean? Still an FSX directory left behind? Some uninstalls don't remove the program directories completely.

Uninstalling programs work well by "IOBIT-Unistaller"(free). Important: ALL FSX-files must be deleted before newinstall !
Resp. help in WEB---so microsoft KB928080 is needed in Windows 10.
Good luck!
