Removing Visual Studio.NET


Recommended Posts

My son installed this monster when he was in college. He's graduated & got himself a job so I assume he no longer wants it. I know I don't; have no idea what to do with it. I saw somewhere that removing this can be tricky, files you might want to keep get removed. Is it safe to just choose to remove it with Add/Remove Programs (possibly setting a restore point first) or is there a safer way? (+ the library also)

If it were me, I'd leave it as it is and just ignore it as best you can.

Removing something as large and as (potentially) integrated into your operating system, as this will be, could cause lots of problems.

If it is causing problems itself, I suggest that you do a fresh install of Windows - after backing up all your records, of course :)
