Actinic is messy

[pinbrook]

does any one else find it irritating when you uninstall actinic that it leaves entries in add/remove programs for psp and shared ssl.

when you click on them to remove, it says they are already removed and do you want them removed from the list.

as it said - MESSY

Uninstall Actinic!!!! What sort of crazy talk is this???

[pinbrook]

AND...

installing v9, stops and asks you if you want to install PSPs and shared SSL and doesn't give you option to say no. so why stop and ask?

if you hit cancel it infers it will stop the installation - does this means the whole install or just the psp/ssl install.

messy, messy - obviously written by people who know what it does and doesn't take into consideration those who don't mind read yet

Messy Actinic.

Hi all.
To be fair Actinic isn't the only programme that does this, I have come across some others (even microsoft) that do it on occasion. I think it may be more to do with the windows uninstall process.
Also quirky installations that ask silly questions are the norm I thought? after all how many programmers speak normal English, and live on the same planet as the rest of us?? Look at some of the goofy pop-up boxes on windows installations and error messages!
Anyway UNINSTALL ACTINIC!!! I'm shocked, who would do such a thing.

Try running a registry cleaner and it'll freak you out even more!!

If you uninstall the PSP and SSL modules first and then the main program they are removed from the list (they are very small so are quick to uninstall).
