Uninstallation problem - can't reinstall

[Kalnon]

Hi, I'm using P3Dv5 version and I am in the process of doing a completely new and clean P3Dv5 installation, including all my many add-ons and when I was unable to uninstall it originally before deleting all my P3d installation, so I thought I manually deleted it along with all the other files I needed to but I don't recall the installation path to where Accu_Feel is installed for P3Dv5 (or where it thinks it's installed). When I run the installer, it will first try to uninstall, then I always get the same error message that says it could not find "The File dxwebsetup.exe_1 is not marked for installation". I thought it was an installer problem but I downloaded a fresh version of the installer and I still get the same error. Because of this issue, I cannot install it.

Please I would greatly appreciate some help solving this issue so I can get back to my reinstallation.

Thank you.

Hi Kalnon,

I suspect the most likely explanation is that one or more of the Windows registry keys related to the installation hve become corrupted. Please can you give the Windows "Program Install and Uninstall Troubleshooter" a try.

If this doesn't help, could you just confirm if you're already using any third-party 'registry cleaner' type software?

Kind regards,
Nick

It worked, thank you!!! Interesting tool that I never heard of before. Why does Microsoft insist on never telling us about all these really helpful little tools they have like this? lol

Edit: I did make the mistake of using 3rd party registry tool. Every time I try a registry tool, they often tend to break more things than it fixes. I don't know why I bother trying to fix the registry, it's too complicated for me and I don't even think it's really worth it most of the time.
