Sherry/Judith I think her problem is that 7.5 is not uninstalled yet, just 7, unless I'm wrong about that. Even if she deletes the 7.5 folders and runs cc, my experience is that it will leave junk that may not affect L8 but will affect the running of her machine down the line. If she has 7.5, do a re-install of that to get an install.log, then use unwise.exe to uninstall, custom option, ok all requests to uninstall all features. Her data files will not be affected, but never hurts to copy somewhere else.

I recommend CCleaner by Piriform for cleaning out the registry, but the Legacy uninstall generally does a pretty good job of doing that. Judith, after uninstalling Legacy, the c:\Legacy folder remains in order to protect your data, saved settings, media, webpages, etc - anything that was changed or added during your use of Legacy is not deleted. If you're sure that everything is out of the c:\Legacy folder that you want to save, just delete the folder.

If you still have 7.4 or can get it from Legacy, I would follow the same route you just did. Maybe even if you have to re-install Legacy 7 over it to get the install.log file back. ----------------------------------------- Prescott Smith presku...@yahoo.com ============================================================================ From: Judith [ judithsfamilyt...@gmail.com ] Sent: Saturday, December 14, 2013 01:00 PM To: legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Uninstalling Legacy 7.5 I reinstalled Legacy 7, and was able to uninstall it. However, I still have Legacy 7.4 in my C:drive with no INSTALL.LOG.FILE, is there a solution. If I delete it all, all the files under Legacy in the C:drive and then clean the registry, would that do it? Or can I manually delete the Legacy registry files. I don't want to mess up legacy 8, but I can reinstall that if needed.
