ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 I think you have some vital uninstaller information missing. Try a repair install of VS, then uninstall.P.S. did you follow all the steps that MANEMAN gave you in post #4 (or the KB article that Scarecrow Man posted) ? Just saying "nothing working" means you didn't really try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
