ok I was having trouble with the game crashing to the desktop so I did a proper uninstall using the guide you have in the tech support forum. That went fine no problems at all. I reinstalled the game and after fifteen minutes of the computer telling me that the game wasn't installed even though I could play it just fine I reset the system. I then tried to patch it and the patch seemed to install just fine. I booted the game up again and it said it was playing under ver 1.0 so I tried to uninstall it. The computer says its uninstalled and everything but it won't uninstall I can still play the game just like normal. I can even go through the control panel and try ot take it out that way and I have the same problem. I don't think its something I did because I've never had this problem before.

I'd try reinstalling it again but I've got to get it off my system. At this point though reformating my hard drive isn't an option at this time. I'd love to play the current version but I need to reinstall it and to do that I've got to get it off first.

Any recomendations?

i can still play it but i can't uninstall or upgrade it. what would happen if i just manually deleted the folders and the registry entry? I really don't want to format the drive.
Um if you followed the sticky thread instructions like you say you did, then you already did all that.
 
Your questions tell me you are not reading the directions carefully.
They say to seach for Hearts.
 
read the directions

read the directions again sorry

the only files near as i can tell left on my system related to hearts are tied in with the card game. deleted the registry key, the directory, and the hidden files. did I miss anything?

sorry about my lack of attention.
 
Make sure you search under both the publisher name and Paradox.
 
I had the same problem . i deleted every line with paradox and hoi 2 and everything went ok. It happen to me after using the repair option while a friend who doesn't trust the repair option had no problems.
