uninstall possible, and if so how?

[s134k]

hi all,
just downloaded masm32 9.0 for a quick project I needed to assemble. good job on it BTW, its pretty nice :U .

but just a question. I code the C programming language and have been coding it for about 1 year now. I don't think I am quite ready for Assembly language programming, but am getting there. I have no use for masm32 at the moment, and my HDD is getting full, I am just wondering if it is possible to uninstall masm32 and if so how do I do it? I can't find any uninstall applications anywhere, looked in Control Panel Add/Remove Programs and its not in there.

I was thinking of just deleting the masm32 folder from the drive I installed it on, but I don't think that will be a "clean" uninstall (it will likely leave behind reg keys and what not). can someone please tell me how I can uninstall masm32?

thankyou in advance! :green

Yes, this is the way.

Nope, the install did not use any register settings.  It is all file base.

Now, you registered the file type .asm to QEditor, then you need to remove that yourself.

BTW, In the early days of C, it was mostly a MASM libriarian, running as a compiled script.

s134k,

MASM32 is a safe install in that it does not read or write to the registery at all so you can simply delete the entire directory tree in safety.

thanks for the welcome and replies! :bg

and sorry, I will read the forum rules now, and search next time before I ask a question like this. :red

ok then, I will just delete that folder. and no I didn't choose to associate the .asm extension with QEditor, .asm files still open in notepad.
