WTF?! Get OFF planetside!!

Indecisive · 2004-03-01, 06:52 PM

While browsing my programs this afternoon, I realized something.

I still have 6 gigs of my computer being taken up by Planetside and the Planetside Test directorys.

According to Add/Remove Programs planetside is gone. I did that months ago. But. Guess what. The only thing it removed was the planetside.exe file

DIE.

Manual deletion? Neg, Everything is read only, and resets itself to read only the second I change it. Fix from CD? Neg. Only option on that damn flash install wizard is "PLAY PLANETSIDE!!!11123210"

Get. Off. NOW!@@!@

Im guessing this requires registry digging. I have no experiances in this aspect. wtfban.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP.

Please

In addtion: Everyone knows that the lobby is the only forum anyone visits. So. This is why this is here. heh.

No dice. Goes to 500 megs with the same read only properties. :/

did you do a search for the files that are still there? If you find one, the others will be with it.

What in the who? They are all read only.

This is funny, he wants to get it off before he plays it again.

Indecisive · 2004-03-01, 07:32 PM

I laugh at you.

Ah. There we go. Tracked everything down. Got it, and stabbed it. Thanks to Smaug for leading me there. Lol. Thanks.

/stab thread.

Ah. And.

I had the same problem. a few years ago, I had a dell laptop, and it was my only means of playing games. it had a 3 GB harddrive. this meant I had to recycle every megabyte I could, I mostly had the sims, and Age of empires 2. but I uninstalled the sims. but wait. I felt like playing it again a few months later. I searched it, and there it was, full saved families and everything. hmmm....
