I CAN NOT GET MySQL Direct .NET 2.70 for .NET Framework 1.1 TO UNINSTALL HELP!?!?!?!?!?

[Guest]

i have tried EVERYTHING i know to do, run the MSI program from Ad/Remove programs, tried to run the MSI from the program group for CoreLab, but every time i run the MSI to uninstall the software i get the following error:

Application has generated an exception that could not be handled.

Process id=0x1c14(7188), Thread id=0xdd8(3544),

Click OK to terminate the Application.
Click CANCEL to Debug the Application.

(i HAve to click OK i don't have a CLR/JIT Debugger)

then, after i click OK i get:

Error 1722, there is a problem with this Windows installer package,
A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected,
Contact you support personnel or package vendor.

(then i click OK on that message box)

then the Setup/Uninstall window vanishes and when i look in program menu and add/remove programs it's STILL THERE!!

SOMEONE PLEASE help me remove this thing ASAP!!!?!?

P.S - Has anyone else had this problem???

if someone has a solution PLEASE post it, thanks.

To remove MySQLDirect .NET manually you should:

• Stop Windows Installer service
• Delete key in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products that corresponds to MySQLDirect .NET
• Delete key in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Assemblies that corresponds to CoreLab.MySql.dll
• Remove all CoreLab.* assemblies from GAC
• Stop IIS service if you install Web demos virtual directories
• Remove \Program Files\CoreLab\MySQLDirect.NET folder.

After that you can install MySQLDirect .NET again.
