skeletorscorpse Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I installed XPize practically just clicking Next not paying attention.And I don't like what it has done. So I uninstalled it wanting to get my XP back but lots of the changes are still there such as icons and things.How do I completely remove it?

tkrojam Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Typically resolve your problem by reinstalling it and then uninstalling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelsenellenelvian Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 You probably need to refresh your icon cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrojam Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Try to use some advance uninstaller like "Your Uninstaller", "Ashampoo UnInstaller", etc. God bless your machine~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeletorscorpse Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 You probably need to refresh your icon cache.I have tried the to rebuild the icon cache using both regseeker and tweakui and rebooted with no success.Attached is an image showing which icons are still messed up.Copying files, I have no idea where that is from, whether XPize rewrote a Windows DLL or not I don't know.The icon for files that don't have an icon have those silly little icons. The Shutdown menu. The Windows Welcome screen is fine. If this can't be fixed I will just go back to the classic logon.And the Log Off and Shutdown buttons.And remember folks always read about what a program does before you install it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPero Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Pay attention next time. you probably have removed the uninstaller and left the customizations. No way back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeletorscorpse Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share Posted May 14, 2007 Well I went to Add & Remove Programs and removed Task Switch through there.Then from the Start Menu I chose the uninstaller and ticked all the boxes. It went through all the DLL's and I restarted but they remained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPero Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Weird...Try installing XPize without anything checked, then uninstall everything. If not, make an "upgrade installation" using your XP CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
