runtime error when running unins001.exe
Posted: Mon 08 May 2017 12:02
I downloaded the new ODAC components (trial version) for Delphi 7. The first step in installing them is removing the old version (8.6.11). Uninstalling using the standard Windows options doesn't work so I tried running unins001.exe from C:\Program Files (x86)\Borland\Delphi7\LibJVP\ODAC7\ODAC for Delphi 7\Uninstall.
The error reads:
Runtime error (at 181:2647):
Cannot open file C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\LibJVP\ODAC7\ODAC for Delphi 7\Uninstall\InstallicoImage.bmp.
I understand the error, the file is not in C:\Program Files\.... but in C:\Program Files (x86)\...., where also unins001.exe is located. The erroneous directory (C:\Program Files\...) is in unins001.dat but I cannot change it. How to proceed in deleting the old ODAC version?
Any help would be welcome, I am not a Windows, Delphi or ODAC expert.
Kind regards,
Sandra Bellekom
