sh 3 reloading trouble

navyvet · 02-16-08, 01:10 PM

I removed sh 3 and now I can't reload. I have searched all files and nothing remains of sh 3. Registry is clean. All hidden files are clean. All it will allow is modify, repair and unstall. need help,please. Unstall won't work as no files are available. I hope there are some young people out there that help out this senile old sailor. thanks'

Click repair and it will install the game again
There is obviously something left for the game to think its installed

In case anyone has this problem I had here is the solution. The file was hidden in the windows installer msi,chm folder. Microsoft has a free cleaner to erase this file.

How did you 'remove' SH3. Simply deleted the Sh3 folder from your harddrive? Bad idea, allways uninstall programs first, then delete whatever is left of it (SH3 folder and Sh3 folder in My documents). 'Repair' should get this sorted out again usually. But it seems you allready have it back.
