General Mach Discussion / Re: Can't uninstall
« on: January 05, 2011, 01:16:27 AM »
I'm still having problems!!!!!!
The three dates listed are not relative to the date I installed the program.
That is not going to work.

Is there a list of files that is installed and to what directory they are installed to?

I am going to have to re format my hard drive if I cant get this fixed.

ANY HELP PLEASE????

I hate to be rude but I'm pretty sure I've explained my problem thoroughly.

Thanks

Here is my problem
#1 - I downloaded Mach3 yesterday.
#2 - It runs fine, as far as I can tell.
#3 - With nothing else different, other than loading Mach3, my computer is not running right.

What I need
#1 - How do I uninstall the files?
#2 - I don't care where they are located
#3 - something in the Mach3 install is interfering with my laptop.

I want to purchase to license to run Mach3 and LazyCam.
I don't care what the file name is or where it is but I cant do anything until I get my laptop to run right.

Arranging them as last modified won't work because the dates are not relevant and there are files from other programs there, too.

So I just did a reinstall and the default was C:Mach3.
I manually changed it to C:/Program Files and it installed it at C:/Program Files/Mach3.
So it built its own folder called Mach3.
Now, behind the Windows Start button, there is an icon for Mach3 and in the sub menu there is an uninstall option.
But this option will not uninstall the files at C:/Program Files.

I am still having the other problems?
And the program filles are still at C:/Program Files?

This is really frustrating and time consuming.

The restore point didn't work either.

The default at install was C:/Program Files.
The Video agrees with you.
I didn't get the option and just thought that it would build the Mach3 folder itself?

I'll try to restore to an earlier point.

I do not have any Mach3 related items behind the Windows Start button.
If I click on any of the Mach3 icons on my desktop, I get a G76 thread cutter calculator?
I did see that someone else had an issue and deleteing the pulsing engine had potential.
I did delete it from my machine but there was no change.

I can't believe there is no uninstall procedure?
The unistall.xml file is 60 pages.
Will I have to go through and manually delete every file listed on there?

I'm not off to a good start here?

I downloaded Mach3 yesterday and today I'm having issues with my laptop.
I was hoping to uninstall Mach3 to see if that is why I'm having these other (new) issues.
Is there a procedure to uninstall?

Thanks

I did not get a shortcut icon to run Mach3 to the desktop but did get;
Mach3Turn
Mach3Plasma
Mach3Mill
MillProfile
Cancel
LazyCam

There is a Mach3.exe file in C:/Program Files hat will start and run the Mach3 program.
I've been able to play around with it and it seems to be working OK?
My problem is with other programs now acting strange and hanging up.
I don't know enough about Windows XP to know if other files got written over or are interfering or overtaxing...?

My installation did not go the same as the video?
But I've been able to follow along on the running Mach program as the video progresses.

Again, my problem is with other software since I downloaded the Mach3.

Its on a Windows laptop. 
The video says to install it into C:/Program Files. 
I thought it would build its own folder but it didn't. 
I haven't deleted anything because I don't know how to start the process.
I would think there should be some way to get the .xml file started to get the uninstall process going?

Still don't know what to do?

Thanks

Hello All
I installed Mach3 on my laptop following the video, which seems to be out of date?
The Mach3 files are now in the directory - C:/Program Files and not in any particular folder.
I've run into problems and want to uninstall but haven't been able to find the process.

My plans are to run DraftSight for the CAD work, Ace Converter or LazyCam and Mach3 as a work-flow.
I'd like to be able to use my laptop for all of the prep work then use a dedicated PC to run my homemade CNC router.

Right now, I would really like to delete all of the Mach3 files from my laptop and get it running again.
Then reinstall the Mach3 program. I'm not quite sure if I'm supposed to install the drivers (on the laptop laptop) or not?
There seems to be conflicting info on the videos?

Can anyone help?
Does anyone have suggestions or comments re my work-flow?
I am an apple user and really despise the Windows operating system.

Thanks
MSS
