Hey there,

Long time happy user of S&D, but I got some weird notifications from it, so figured something might have bugged up, so I wanted to re-install and update to a newer version (as the updater didn't work properly). However, I can't seem to uninstall - it just freezes right in the start of the process (and I've waited a couple of hours for it to initiate).

Using Windows a7. Anyone got some kind of trick, I could try?

I've tried both with Control Panel / Programs and Features / right-click on S&D uninstall, and just S&D's uninstall feature in the start menu.

Thanks in advance.

Oskar

Hello,

Could it be that you are using the Spybot-S&D 2.0 Beta 1?

It says 2.0.5.131 as "Scanner version", and 2.0.5.0 build 20110804 in the window of the "Manage Services". I couldn't find any "about S&D" to click on.

Hello,

I would recommend to try the new Beta 4 (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/news/2011-10-06.html).
You can install over the old version.
