High Noon uninstaller - is this possible?

[chayton]

I had trouble installing High Noon when I got my new computer, I tried reinstalling but got errors - yesterday I decided to uninstall and start over. It got near the end of the uninstall and it sat there for almost an hour with a message something like "applying permissions to objects." Usually I get frustrated and close it but this time I just let it sit there doing its thing while I used my other computer. So finally it finished, but today I look in my RTG folder and ALL of my RTG casinos are gone! Could one uninstaller get rid of them all?

I looked in the uninstall program list and the only ones that are still showing up there are Grande Vegas and iNetBet, but they're gone from my C: drive. When I ran the Grande Vegas uninstaller, it kept popping up a message that it couldn't uninstall permissions because it couldn't find them.

Did I uninstall them all in my sleep or did High Noon spirit them away?



EDIT: 14 casinos in total!

Make that 4 more - I just discovered that it also deleted the Playtech casinos that I had installed in that same directory.

But I think I know what happened - when I install casinos, if I have a choice, I install them into a Casino directory so they're not cluttering up my Program Files directory. Because I do use this computer for other things besides gambling. So I have a directory on my C: drive called Casinos, and each casino I install is in its own directory in there. The last time I installed High Noon, I put it into this Casino directory - but for some reason it didn't make a subfolder called High Noon, and installed itself into the root of the Casino directory.

So my theory is that when I uninstalled, it deleted everything that was in the same directory as itself - which included all my other RTG and Playtech casinos, probably including each of their uninstall files so that most of them didn't show up in my add/remove programs list.

Does that sound feasible?

Feasible, but surprising. AFAIK High Noon uses the RTG uninstaller so you could test it I guess.

Feasible, but surprising. AFAIK High Noon uses the RTG uninstaller so you could test it again by installing a couple of casinos like you did before I guess. I'm wondering if naming your folder "casinos" confused it.

uninstall the program then run ccleaner (do both registry clean and clean) once finished reboot and then try it should work

I reinstalled everything this morning and all the casinos are working fine. It just seemed weird that uninstalling one would wipe out the whole directory. Maybe if I'm bored one day I'll try to replicate that.
