In order to uninstall any program such as Limewire the registry keys created or altered by Limewire must also be deleted. Some of these keys may not have Limewire in their file name.
Can anyone supply a list of all the registry keys for all versions of Limewire, especially the most recent?
[BitTorrent, which I have also had uninstallation problems with, has a support site, btforums I believe, that includes a list of all the Windows registry entries for BitTorrent: after I deleted these entries BitTorrent was completely gone (and how much faster my system worked! Yay!)]
I am trying to uninstall Limewire 4.12. I reinstalled 4.12 then uninstalled using the Limewire uninstaller, but my system (XP Home) still includes StubInstaller.exe (from 2005), LimeWireWin.exe (from 2006, version unknown) and LimeWireWin-full.exe. These have no uninstallers.
I also still have the Limewire folder in Application Data: This includes 4 registry entries: Deleting this folder will not change these registry entries. They must be removed individually from the registry.
