Uninstalling Rev Studio Demo
Posted: Thu Jul 13, 2006 2:54 pm
I just purchased a license for Rev Studio for the Windows platform; however, the expired demo copy (ver 2.7.1) remains on my computer.
With many software packages it's usually best to remove older versions and/or demo software prior to installing a newer full version. Thus, I attempted to uninstall the demo version of Revolution.
The uninstall program ran, and reported back that all versions of Revolution had been been removed. Upon further inspection, however, the uninstaller removed absolutely nothing - no icons, no start menus, no directories, no executables, no .dll's, no documentation.
I've run the uninstaller twice, with the same lack of results.
Anybody else run into this?
Just for the record, and future updates, is it necessary to remove prior versions before upgrading to a newer version?
Judging from the directory structure under the "Revolution Studio" directory, I'm guessing that older versions are kept on the machine, and are not overwritten by newer versions.
Thanks,
George
