Need to completely uninstall JRE 1.3.1

Installing JRE 1.3.1 on a Win2k SP2 machine causes a 16bit application to fail with a "not enough space for environment" error. Uninstalling JRE 1.3.1 does not solve the problem.
I can repeat this at will using a machine with only Windows 2000 installed. The problem only appears when the Path variable is over 100 bytes.
At this point my first priority is getting this 16bit app working. Are there some settings not cleaned up by the uninstall that can be manually changed to restore functionality?

When I run into similar problem, the way I get around it is to enter the shorten MS-DOS name in the PATH variable in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and reboot the machine. For example:
set path=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\DOS;C:\LF9045\BIN;C:\JDK1.3.1\BIN
set path=%PATH%;"C:\Progra~1\Mts";"C:\Progra~1\Micros~1.0\bin";
So, my suggestion is for you to cleanup the autoexec.bat file and reboot to see if it solves your problem.

    Try to install FireFox computer says needs to reboot to uninstall deleted FireFox , when computer restart no install.

    Had the same drama with Windows 7 64 bit this is what I was told to do and it worked for me!!
    Close all applications and reboot the computer.
    Delete any downloaded or partially downloaded installer files.
    Clear the browser cache (of whatever browser you are using to download FF) and the Windows Temp directory.
    Delete the directory C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    Shutdown any anti-virus software you are running.
    Download a new copy of the full installer from www.mozilla.com
    Run the installer.
    Restart the anti-virus program.

  • How do I completely uninstall an application using Darwin?

    Dear Forum Members,
    Hello to everyone, I'm new to the Apple Discussions forum and this is my first post. Recently, I came to understand through online sources that most applications designed to uninstall software do not completely remove everything. Does Darwin have the commands needed to completely uninstall an application? If so, what are they and in what order would I execute them? When the need arises, I would like to know how to do this properly.
    My experience in using Darwin is basic but I would like to learn more and become more proficient with its use.
    Thank you,
    AYW?

    There is "No" unified uninstall facility.
    If the application did not provide its own uninstall script, then you generally drag the application to the trash, then if you are worried about the preferences files you look in $HOME/Library/Preferences and maybe "$HOME/Library/Application Support" for files related to the app you trashed.
    If you installed something via open source tools, then you dig through the makefile and look for where stuff was installed, and undo it.

  • How do you COMPLETELY uninstall Itunes AND the Settings too??

    Hi,
    I am having some troubles with itunes and I was told to uninstall it and then reinstall it again. However whenever I do this the previous settings are still there. I need to COMPLETELY uninstall the program and also ALL of the settings.
    My iphone settings are messed up and it is synching with some other calendar, so I need to uninstall the program and then also erase the files where the settings for this are stored. It is not doing it becuase when I reinstalled the program my old settings were still there, I did not have to redo anything.
    Thanks so much for all of your help.
    Charles

    Hi,
    Thanks again.
    I tried that last night. I uninstalled Itunes, I removed all of the "settings" files on the application folder. Then I reset the iphone and erased all data.
    While it did erase the playlist and videos and photo information, the MAIL and CONTACT Sync info remained there. I cant get rid of that info for some reason.
    Its wierd becuase when I synch my ipod the calendar and contact sync's fine. But with the iphone only the contacts sync not the calendar. It is sync'ing to some other calendar somewhere else and I cant find it. I just need to reset the settings and it will be fine.
    Do you have any other ideas. Thanks so much.

  • Need information on complete uninstall of tbird

    I have been trying to discover how to do a complete uninstall of Thunderbird and then reinstall with new profile. I have a) uninstalled it; b) removed all the profiles with %appdata%, etc., c) emptied trash; d) reinstalled Thunderbird, e) filled in the required information to create new account; e) connected to server, and f) the old account with all its errors pops up.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Hello,
    To me it seems like you are talking about a Clean Install you can do so by following these steps:
    Certain Thunderbird problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Thunderbird's program files and then reinstall Thunderbird. Please follow these steps:
    #Download the latest version of Thunderbird from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download is complete, close all Thunderbird windows (Click Exit/Quit from the menu button on the right).
    #Delete the Thunderbird installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #** C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    #** C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Thunderbird from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Thunderbird with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Thunderbird on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ Thunderbird Download Page], simply remove the folder ''thunderbird'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Thunderbird:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to open Thunderbird after clicking the Finish button.
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Thunderbird's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Thunderbird data, including but not limited to, extensions, emails, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • How do you uninstall software?  I have tried to download printer software that needs to be reinstalled and I cannot proceed until the original version is completely uninstalled.

    I have installed printer software that needs to be uninstalled and reinstalled and I keep getting an error message saying that the application is running and needs to be closed before proceeding.  I do not know how to close applications and uninstall software.  Any help????

    If its an actual application and appears as an icon in applications then click and hold over the icon and drag it to the trash can. That should uninstall it as far as I know.
    If its like the HP printer software then there is an uninstalled icon within the folder.
    Hope it helps.

    How do I completely uninstall adobe acrobat pro 9 tial version
    after it has expired?  Since this has expired I am having issues with other programs that use Adome A
    crobat and the new flash player will not install correctly.

    If uninstalling Acrobat normally does not resolve the issue, you better ask in the appropriate Acrobat forum.  Don't forget to mention your OS and any relevant details.
    You can continue this topic regarding your problem with Flash Player, but we also need to know your OS, browser, and the exact details of your problem.

  • Complete uninstall of fcp 7 studio

    I would like to do a complete uninstall of Final Cut Pro 7 Studio. My intention is to give these install discs to a friend who can then install and register them without problems on the allotted desktop and laptop as provided in the licensing agreement. Is this possible? Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Jay

    Hi Gary,
    I appreciate your input. But I'm not confused. I know this is FCS 3 we're referring to, but different software titles have different licenses. Apple has this page listing the various licenses for their products. That there's more than one means the rules for each software title listed are different. So unless a person were to read through it, you wouldn't know what you can and can't do with a particular title. That it's not Adobe or Microsoft in this case is irrelevant. You still need to read it to find out how a transfer must be done.
    For FCS3, registering does not authenticate the software, does not give proof of ownership does not provide the ability  obtain technical support. FCS3  installs and operates properly without registering.
    Yes, I know that. I own it. I can't think of any Apple title that "phones home", as the Windows OS and Office do, to activate a new install. You just need to provide the serial number during installation.
    To relinquish ownership of FCS 3 the application is removed form the sellers computer, documentaion and discs must be given to the new owner, that completes the legal transfer. Its up to the new owner whether he registers or not. All the new owner has to do is install the application, there is no need to register to be able to own, install and operate FCS 3.
    Yes, but again, until reading the license, that statement would have been a guess. Before I could sell a copies of Macromedia FreeHand MX and Monaco Proof I had, I was required to fill out a transfer of ownership form. I'm just saying it varies from company to company and title to title.
    Your question about ''one time permanent transfer' means a seller can only transfer the licence once to an other person - you cant transfer it again later to an other buyer, that would be theft.
    Of course a second copy from you to someone else would be theft, but that wasn't the question. As it reads, does it mean:
    1) Only the person who originally bought the software is allowed to transfer it to a second owner. And that owner can then not sell or give the software away themselves.
    or
    2) It's a poor way of saying whoever has the software (the original disks and documentation) can sell or give away the software once. Then that new owner can also do the same once.
    I would have to believe the latter, but it can be taken either way.

  • Problem completely uninstalling Photoshop  Elements 10

    How do I completely uninstall Photoshop Elements 10?  I have already gone to the uninstall program, and it uninstalled it, however it is stil on my computer.  When I go to Adobe it is still there, when I try to delete it, this is the message that I get:  You require permission from SYSTEM to make changes to this folder.
    I have no idea what this means, or what to do about it.  I have installed Photoshop Elements 11.
    I'm running Windows 7 (64 bit).

    Permissions issue means you need to be logged in as Admin in order to uninstall PSE10. If that doesn't work, please download CS Cleaner tool from : CSCleaner and run it as Admin, thereby uninstalling all left out traces of PSE10.
    Let me know if you need more help on this.
    Thanks

  • How to completely uninstall air app(clear up user files under app directory)?

    In the adobe air 1.1 install/uninstall document, it says "Removing an AIR application removes all files in the application directory. However, it does not remove files that the application may have written to outside of the application directory. "
    But it's not true. I found you cannot completely uninstall the app if there is any user files under app directory. If the user re-install the app, it will reminder the user "some error has occurred ...because an application with that name already exists at the selected installation location.... ".
    How to get rid of this problem if the user didn't clear up the folder manually before re-install?  If it's a limitation of adobe air, anyone could give me any evidence from official documents? Cause I have to persuade the user to accept it    Thank you.

    Psythik wrote:After returning my 6GB Zen Micro to the store (due to the fact that I filled it up quicked than I would've liked), I decided to go with the Zen Sleek player instead. Problem is, my computer still has the Zen Micro's drivers installed and apparantly it's conflicting with my Sleek because my computer won't recgonize it as a Zen Sleek even after installing the drivers (it just recgonizes it as a generic mp3 player). I can still transfer files to it as a would with a generic mp3 device in My Computer. Problem is, ID3 tags aren't properly sent this way (which is annoying when I want an album organized by track number).
    You shouldn't need to uninstall the Micro, it won't conflict. If tags aren't being sent properly then there might be some issue with the tags being read from the files. Check with a dedicated tagging program, and rewrite the tags perhaps on some test files.
    I'm assuming it's a Sleek with v2.xx firmware?

  • When I open FireFox in win7, it always asks yes or now from "user account control". I have to completly turn uac off to avoid it. I have completly uninstalled

    It says it needs my permission to make changes. I have completly uninstalled and reinstalled latest ver from website. Same results?????? I use Firefox to get 64 bit in windows as flashplayer does not work on IE at 64 bit.

    I know. Maybe I wasn't clear. In order to run the computer at 64 bit, IE has to be set for 64bit. If IE is at 64bit, flashplayer won't always work. Firefox will run at 32 bit on a 64 bit platform, so that is what I do waiting on flashplayer to get to 64bit.
