Uninstallation in WM5 ( Prophet) is terrible...

[aminsamizadeh]

I can't say how much wm2003 or 2003SE were better in uninstaling process,every time i want to uninstall an application it propmts me "Unable to Uninstall do you want to remove the app from the list?
Do you Agree? any Suggestion?

Had this problem in the past...

I was using sktools and from the tweaks section of sktools i used some of them, after a hard reset i decided not to use any more sktools and instead started using memmaid... now everything works pefectly.

Furthermore, on another device I have (Fujitsu Siemens N520) which uses WM5 I never had uninstalation problems so I conclude that the uninstalation process works o.k. and the problem is not microsoft related.

Most probably some registry tweaks is causing it.

hi,

i had this same problem from day one and from every program i have tried to install.

for the moment, i use memaid to 'clean' the memory after each uninstall, but it seems like such a bad idea.

does anyone have any news on this, is there another program that is bette at uninstalling ?

cheers,


scott

Without exception I found that if I first stop all active programs and re-run the uninstall the process completes without an error.

I tested it..mostly it works..but the problem is why we shoud do some actions out of the Normal uninstallation process.
Seems HTC ROMs have such a problem cause on other ROMs uninstallation process works fine

Install the demo version of this and enable 'safe mode' in Settings>System>Spb Pocket Plus

It's pretty nice software, anyway.

I'm not aware of any other way to reset the device in 'safe mode.'

Hope that helps.

If I plan on uninstalling something I just do a soft reset before I do it. After I started doing that I have not had any problems.
