MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / September 2007How can I completely remove Outlook 2002 from Vista???
(Sorry for the repost. Forgot to check my subject line for accuracy before posting) How do I completely remove Outlook 2002 from Vista since add & remove does NOT remove all the files and folders as well as other information. Thanks, Dan You can us Windows Installer CleanUp Utility to remove all Registry entries and then you need to use Windows Explorer to delete the folders. It does a very good job for most applications including trial versions from Adobe which normally have time limits. The link to download is here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 Hope this helps. > (Sorry for the repost.

When I reinstall Outlook 2002 to see if it removed all files and folders I find that I still have all my emails, folders and Contacts. So obviously there are still Outlook folders that were not deleted. And when I insert the Outlook CD, it just opens the folder with all the files in it but there are NO options to remove the program from the computer. This is very frustrating. Can Microsoft make it any harder? I believe they can and WILL!!!!!!!!! > I believe if you read the KB you will find it only removes reg entries > specific to the installer, for that app [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > >> > Thanks, > >> > Dan Uninstalling never removes your data or profile. Nor should it. That's by design and is for your protection.  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > OK, I tried "Windows Installer CleanUp Utility" and that didn't work.
