uninstall sims

[FN-GM]

Hi,

 

On our workstations with sims installed, it isnt listed in add and remove programs. We need to uninstal it to fix an issue.

 

Does anyone have any idea on how to remove it please?

 

Thanks

just delete c:/program files/SIMS should sort it. everything clientwise is stored there

Tried that but i need to do a full install i assume there is stuff in the registry to get rid of.

I had the same issue a little while ago.

 

See this thread: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/how-do-you-do/60843-script-delete-multiple-occurrences-given-text-registry.html

 

I eventually found that this works very well:

 

Link: Codeode » Registry Distiller (Free)

 

I experimented on a station that I knew I could re-image if it went badly wrong but I found that it got rid of all of the SIMS dross [over 300 Registry entries] and lots more besides!

sims infrastructure should be in the add remove programs applet, if not, then it might depend on how you installed sims on the workstation.

Just remove sims.ini from the windir, and the sims folder within program files. You could uninstall .NET I guess.
