Can I uninstall RoboHelp 7.0.3 without RoboHelp 7?

Report · Apr 05, 2012

Hello,

I have gotten myself into a pickle. I recently uninstalled TCS1 and installed TCS3.5. I did not uninstall the RH patches (7.0.1 through 7.0.3) before I uninstalled TCS1.

Yeah, I know.

Now I can't uninstall the RH patches.

It wasn't until after the fact that I read the information on Peter's website about the proper way to go about this (see http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh7/using_rh7.htm and the section named "Uninstalling RoboHelp 7"), so now I am one of those people who "left the patch high and dry."

I suspect that I will have to uninstall TCS3.5, reinstall TCS1, uninstall the RH patches, uninstall TCS1, and finally resinstall TCS3.5.

Please tell me I'm wrong and that there is an easier way to remove the RH 7.0.3 (and lower) patches . . . .

Thank you,

Shannon Mooney

Hi,

I’ve had the same problem once and I solved it with Revo Uninstaller: http://www.revouninstaller.com/. (There’s a free trial version.)

It took a little digging with Revo, but I successfully removed the patches. At least it’ll be faster than installing everything and then uninstalling it bit by bit.
