Re: Error 1001 uninstalling ps2


After the uninstaller failed I tried to remove the program manually by removing it from the system registry and then deleting its files.
I could not find any planetside entries in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\" or "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\". A search of the registry came up with 3 keys, however none of them appeared to be related to the actual install. (one referenced a video I had recorded, another referenced the installer file I downloaded, and the third referenced the actual planetside executable however the last few times I've had to manually uninstall a program, the relevant keys weren't in "HKEY_CLASSES+ROOT\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Shell\MuiCache". In the end, I didn't delete any files or modify any registry keys.

Note: I am not a registry expert. I have very little experience in using it because I generally just use an uninstaller to remove a program. If anyone with more experience can confirm my results, it would be helpful.
Note: system is a windows 7x64 with service pack 1 installed.
