Uninstall Software with "MINSTALL" (Kiewits)
« on: January 27, 2021, 06:46:44 pm »
Hi

I installed Timdity MCD (which I know it is not recommended) with "MINSTALL (Kiewits)" in ArcaOS 5.0.6 and I now want to uninstall it.
I don't know how to uninstall it, can someone please give me some tips?

I vaguely remember that it's like installation, but have to enter the number 0. It's likely that I mix that up.

Correect select the amount of the option you are installing and if it offers the option select 0.

Hi

Sorry, I don't get it. There is no option "zero" if I run the minstal here are the options. I will keep trying on the VM.

I'm just guessing: What happens if you press Enter? Are you able to select the amount then?

 Martin,

  When you run minstall for Timidity, it shows 1 item to select. Hit the number '1' and the item will show <selected>, or hit the number '1' again and it will show nothing. When it shows nothing, hit enter. See if that uninstalls it (after a reboot).

  I had trouble with this some time ago, and ended up manually editing MMPM2.INI to get rid of Timidity MCD.

Regards,
