How to properly uninstall/reinstall Ubuntu One on Windows XP?
- by user73303
I had previously installed an Ubuntu One client as a test on a Windows XP machine. Now I wanted to change the account for the client to a production one but had problems changing the email address so decided to do a reinstall.
Ran uninstall.
Downloaded ubuntuone-3.0.2-windows-installer.exe.
It downloads, goes through the unpacking/install – strangely some of the messages say updating as if it was replacing something that was already there.
I do not get the setup/signin screen. There is no ubuntu% processes running. The Program files/ubuntuone directory exists with data and dist folders.
The U icon is on the desktop – pointing at ubuntuone/dist/ubuntuone-control-panel-qt.exe but this does not run.
Ran uninstall again, deleted Program files/ubuntuone directory, removed any ubuntu entries for registry, rebooted. Downloaded install again - exactly the same as above.
How can I uninstall Ubuntu One to get a clean reinstall? Or force the install to continue after downloading/unpacking?
