Uninstall instructions

Fri Jun 05, 2015 6:19 am

Before I install this and it changes my network related settings I want to know what is involved in uninstalling it. Based on experience from other vendors I am now "once burnt twice shy" about this particular issue, particularly when network settings are involved.

I am on Windows 7, do I just go to: Control Panel > Programs & Features and uninstall? And will that undo any network changes you will have made?

If there is more to it please detail the uninstall procedure.

Thanks

Yes, it is that simple. :thumbsup I have done it myself.

Yup. We're finding Kaspsersky isn't playing too nice, so if you run that you may find HideAway won't install correctly, it seems at this point Kaspsersky prevents the network driver from being isntalled.

Apart from that, I know of no other issues.

In the course of beta-testing have had to uninstall HideAway a record number of times - the uninstall has never broken anything, for me. ;)
