Don't know why it takes you so long.
Usually regular uninstall works just fine, don't know what went wrong with your copying folders around.

Also do not install 1.1, 1.2 is cumulative. much better to just install 1.2
 
The whole process, from complete manual uninstall to full install should take less than 15 min. I am sorry but that is the only thing.

Well one faint hope would be to adjust the registry entry to make sure it points to the newest install you did and not the existing one you copied.
 
1. Uninstall works fine in most cases, you just got unlucky for some reason, that was unfortunate. However if it really takes an hour to install on your machine you have bigger problems.

2. If you want a second copy, just copy the contents of the HOI2 folders to a different set of folders.
 
Yes I said 1.2 was cumulative, which is true.

THat means it includes all the changes in 1.2 and 1.1.
That does not mean it contains the whole game. Otherwise anyone could download it off the net for free. Patches never contain all game files.

Patching procedure is
Fresh install from CD
Then install of latest PAtch 1.2 in this case.

You cannot go deleteing files at random and assume they will be included in the patch. If a file had no change from 1.0 to 1.2 it is not included in the patch.
 
Unnecessary Triple posting is sort of frowned on. ;)
I have assisted you by combining them.
