Call of Duty 4 Uninstall Issues

Karzerus · 07-12-2008, 05:16 PM

Hi there, new here.

I got my copy of CoD4 today, played fine but I didn't choose to install PunkBuster for some reason, didn't know you needed it for online.

Now I manually uninstalled it from the autoplay.exe and deleting folders after it gave me an error, from searches there seem to be no folders left on my computer, and when I auto run it again it won't let me install the game again, and gives me an error when i do choose the "uninstall" option.

Need help for a clean wipe out install or something, please! :)

Edit: Game is unplayable too, of course.

Did you remove all the registry files?

Never manually delete software, always use the uninstall option.

Try going to Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a Program

Is it listed there?
