A brief rant... I'm TIRED of uninstalling a program and reinstalling it
only to find it left 99% of it's crap in the registry. When I UNinstall
something I want it GONE... 100%.
I need a tool to remove every trace of Windows Live ANYTHING! One day Msn
Live works, next day, error signing in. Never worked again. It works on my
other computers but my laptop - I give up!
I just spent 4 hours ripping reg keys out of windows, deleteing every trace
off the hard drive of any Live crap. And all this, after days of
uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling with no luck. Now, the stupid Msn
Live Installer just says Installed for all 3 items. It didnt even check that
the folders are there or not. So tired of products imbedding themselves
into the operating system. MS can't even write a decent chat program. I'm
a programmer (advanced asm down to basic), I write quality software. This
kind of crap would never happen in my software. The msn tests (when it was
installed but not working) would say - oh joy - you're connected to the
internet, the service is up, this is working, that is working, nice green
checkboxes everywhere, time syncronized, date correct, everything checked and
double checked.
Wheres the tool to install this crappy chat program bypassing the very
poorly designed Windows Live Installer. I'm sick of this kind of crap
programming. It's a damn chat program. It's not rocket science and you
guys can't even write a good quality hastle free chat program. And we're
supposed to be assured you can write an OS? I'm so SICK of problems like
this everywhere I go. Sure it pays my bills (Windows sucking means money for
me) but I'm tired of registry junk and hundreds of keys). Why do you need so
many damn keys? Why so many registry entries. Its sickening to see
something like a chat program take more than 5 seconds to install on a fast
computer.
LEARN TO PROGRAM! OMG - you guys have SO many flaws in so many products.
QUality testing? Where?
I'm SO mad at Microsoft right now. I wanna tell my thousands of customers
to just go buy Macs I'm SO sick of it all. They are sick of it all too.
Thousands and thousands of service calls to repair a swiss cheese operating
system. Hey, pays my bills but I'm so fed up with lousy installers and even
worse uninstaller.
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME A TOOL TO RIP MSN EVERYTHING OFF MY COMPUTER?
ARGH! So mad.... just so mad at the time wasted.
Wish Commodore was still around... that was quality... C64 (lol). Where
we would be today if Commodore had better management in the end..... so sad
we're stuck with a company (for now) that can't even program a chat program
or an installer.
Doubt I'll get any real help here but I'm extending a branch in the
offchance someone at Microsoft even reads these and knows the internals of
this software and how to fix this problem.
And no... I dont feel like reinstalling my entire laptop just to fix Msn.
I'll go without and a different chat program before I do that. Its a new
laptop, virus free, freshly installed 2 months ago, kept clean of any junk,
runs 100% stable.
