Im trying to uninstall SH3 from my computer completely.

and it appears to uninstall completely, i search my entire C: for anything that could be remotely related to SH3 and i eradicate it from existance.

SH3 appears to uninstall properly

SH3 then reinstalls properly

SH3 runs properly in its stock condition

Sh3 patches to 1.4b properly

*BUT HERE IS THE INTERESTING PART*

when i run SH3 AFTER patch 1.4b is installed. it still has the GWX intro and loading screen, but it has the STOCK menu.

when you click "single missions" all of the GWX single missions appear where prior to 1.4b they do NOT appear. SH3 appears to be some sort of half stock half GWX warewolf mutant.

I have obviously missed something in the uninstall removal process with this real burr in the arse we call windows vista that is causing left over - dormant GWX components to re-activate when patch 1.4b is installed.

the question is... how do i get rid of SH3 and everything connected to it entirely... this is like trying to uninstall AOL :rotfl:
