Hi :) Revouninstaller usually does a good job of finding all the stray bits&bobs Windows scatters around it's system. It gives you a choice as to whether you want to remove those odd bits of strangeness. I haven't used it many times so i can't reliably recommend it but it's been brilliant the few times i have used it and a few other people oin this mailing list spoke of it quite highly too.
Unfortunately it is not free, but luckily does have a 30day free trial; http://www.revouninstaller.com/ I try to avoid using it on a machine untill it really needs it because i am never sure if i will ever be able to use it a 2nd time. However it sounds like you might have reached that point already. So it might be worth trying to do a "parallel install" first just to see if that can be done. This is probably a lot easier to try than it sounds but i haven't tried it myself yet. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Windows Regards from Tom :) On 13 January 2015 at 16:27, John Willerton <[email protected]> wrote: > Installing 4.3.5 on Win XP SP3 comes up with error 1714 saying older > version cannot be uninstalled.
