[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1283263, member: 153283"] Hi CyberSimian It was part of my job, as a Windows developer, to uninstall and reinstall products - hundreds and hundreds of times. I have found MP1 to be very reliable when performing an uninstall. I checked the Registry as well as making sure that MP files on the hard drive were also deleted. My conclusion from all of this is that something is happening in 1.27 that didn't occur in previous versions. The fact that 1.26 installed without any issues, to me, strongly indicates this and, I think, the most important clue as to what is going on. Having said that, I would start by seeing how the setup program handles existing versions to see whether anything has changed there. I did try MP2 out a while ago, but not on this machine. I would have been interested in MP2 but found it lacked the flexibility, from a user's point of view, of MP1, and abandoned all thought of using it. But I think you make a good point about possible conflicts where users install both products on the same machine. Tony [/QUOTE]
