| 257266 | 2004-08-01 20:43:00 | I can't seem to completely uninstall dreamweaver three. When I reinstall the program, it is still on the old settings & still has associations with the sites that I have made. As if it has never been removed. Win2k Cheers Ron |

| 257268 | 2004-08-02 10:36:00 | Re Tommy Sorry for my ignorance, but does that mean I have to sniff around the registry files & fix it? or is that some kind of Windows function? Cheers Ron Bakker |

There are a number of registry cleaning programs that will do the job, including ToniArts EasyCleaner, RegSeeker and JV16 registry cleaner. It would pay to have a look at the forum's Registry FAQ (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) for advice, including backing up the registry. |

Unless you want a "not working" version of Windows of course. OTOH if you play in the registry and have a "not working" version you will very quickly get rid of Macromedia as a reformat will do that won't it? |
