Cannot uninstall older versions of Gallio after VS2010 Beta 2 is uninstalled #620

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I am attempting to Uninstall Gallio 3.1 Build 313 after uninstalling VS2010 
Beta 2.

The installer says that there is an error writing to file 
'Gallio.VisualStudio.Tip100.Proxy.dll' with the message 'Verify that you have 
access to that directory'.

The installer then allows me to retry. After I attempt to retry it indicates 
that an unexpected error occurred and that the error code is 2350. At this 
point the uninstall rolls back.

I am running on Window 7 RC and also have Gallio 3.1 Build 397 installed. 
Thank you for your help.

Bizarre.  I'm also looking into a related installation problem where it seems 
that 
sometimes the Proxy.dlls aren't getting installed at all on some people's 
machines.

You can forcibly remove Gallio using a tool like MSIZap.

Interesting. After having installed the RC I was now able to remove this old 
version. I 
was also able to repair my installation of Gallio 3.1 Build 397. I hope that 
helps.

Actually that makes a certain kind of sense.  The Proxy.dlls are loaded in the 
GAC...
perhaps uninstalling VS 2010 Beta 2 damaged the .Net Framework 4.0 Beta 2
installation somehow.

That also makes sense. I uninstalled everything including the older Beta 2 of 
.NET 4.

Anyways, not much we can do about this.  If you remove the .Net runtime then 
it's
pretty hard for a .Net application to uninstall itself if it needs to run any 
of its
own code to do so.
