Hi. I've had problems uninstalling games on Win XP. When i go to the control
panel and select add or remove programs I get an error message -'An
installation support file could not be installed. The system cannot find the
file specified.'
Any ideas anyone?
 
Maurice you should say if this happens all the time with other things than
games or if it is only games. If it is all the time you need to find more
info than you will here. Go to FAQ or Windows XP Help and Support. If it is
just the game you are trying to uninstall can you find the game in your
programs and see if it has an uninstall with it? If so open the uninstall
that is with the game and use that to uninstall. Good Luck fae76
 
Thanks Fay76. It is only happening on a couple of games. . .they do not
appear in programs any more but they do under the list of installed programs
through the control panel. I have tried your suggestion of the in-game
uninstall but I keep getting the same messages. I have also tried
reinstalling the games - but I'm told they are already there. System restore
back to the earliest date before this problem happened hasn't solved this
problem.
