Uninstall ChemStation version A from computer

[chemviren]

I would like to uninstall ChemStation version A.10.02 from my computer but when I go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs, there is no ChemStation program to uninstall.

Has anyone run into this problem and found out how to uninstall?

also, it does not show up in the registry.

As far as I remember you only need to delete HPChem directory from your HDD.

PS

unnecessary remaining shortcuts may then be deleted from Start Menu and from Desktop.

Sorry to bump this old thread, but I'm having the exact same problem.

When trying to install a more recent version, I get an error message stating something like 'Chemstation A.XX.XX is installed on this computer. Please uninstall the software and run this setup again.'

I have deleted the HPCHEM folder and all shortcuts I could find. Even scanned the registry for references to the software, but no luck.

Any ideas?

[PCS] section in win.ini file - what if you delete it

HP*.ini files in Windows directory - will not be neccessary
