DonStone -> Uninstall/Reinstall does not cleanup/fixup registry (8/16/2003 8:40:14 PM)

On XP, I uninstalled and reinstalled in a different directory (i.e., moved the installation from "C:\Program Files\Matrix Games\Korsun Pocket" to "C:\Matrix Games\Korsun Pocket"). It appeared that the registry was not cleaned up by the uninstall or fixed up by the reinstall.

Specifics: after the reinstall, EmailSender would not run, and gave a complaint about being unable to load a class (I don't have the exact message). I dug around in the registry and found a number of entries refering to the old directory (i.e,. "C:\Program Files\..."). Several of these refered to "MSMAPI32.OCX", which is presumably used by EmailSender. I fixed up these registry entries by hand and all behaved as expected.

That can happen once in a while, as I see your helped yourself allready.
