Yeah, Definitly. You have to go to My Docs/SH5 to get at the save files. So after I un-installed, I would delete the Ubisoft/SH5 directory folder (cause it leaves the directory folder) Then I go to My Docs and delete all the files in SH5 and the folder as well.
So in other words, there is no more SH5 folders in Program files or My Docs.
Then I re-installed the game, and the save files were back. I'm not makin' this up.
I know I never played the game with the DRM on, it was always offline.
So, the only way I knew that all the save files would truly be gone from my computer and the server would be to delete them one by one from the save game page.
Anyway, they are definitely gone now and I can't wait to get home and start the new career. I just hope that the game is all done playin with me !
And thanks to the Col, I will definitely check out that uninstaller. It looks like a good thing to have handy, after this mess!
0rpheus, I'll post after I get my mod stew back up and running, hopefully it will be just fine.
