Cannot uninstall Last Half of Darkness-Beyond the Spirits Eye #731879

When I try to uninstall Last Half of Darkness-Beyond the Spirits Eye, I get a message that says:

The uninstall log file "C:\users\Computer\Last Half of Darkness-Beyond the Spirits Eye DOWNLOAD\unins000.dat" is in a format not recognized by this version of the uninstaller. Cannot uninstall.

This is the version that came on the Last Half of Darkness Trilogy DVD, which appears to be the download version. There did not appear to be any issues when I installed it, and it played with no problems. I've also just finished replaying Shadows of the Servants and Tomb of Zojir from the same DVD, and both of them uninstalled OK. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

You can try CCleaner; it does a good job of uninstalling difficult to remove applications.

Or alternatively send Bill a message over at WRF, he's pretty responsive.

You can find CCLeaner HERE --

I've already tried CCleaner. I get that same error message when I try to uninstall using CCleaner. Same as when I try to uninstall from Control Panel's Programs and Features. I even tried navigating to the game folder and running unins000.exe, same message every time.

Sounds like you should drop Bill a line at WRF - Have you tried reinstalling the game, and then uninstalling? Maybe one of the the files was corrupted.

The thing to do with Ccleaner is to manually delete the game folder (highlight it and use the delete key) and then run the registry cleaner part of Ccleaner (scan for issues). Ccleaner will find anything the game left behind in the registry.

And there's also Revo Uninstaller.

If you try uninstalling and reinstalling, make sure your antivirus is disabled while you do it.

I reinstalled, and then the uninstall worked.

Thanks for the help.
