Cannot uninstall PW base pack.

Not sure what happened to my previous forum post, but my problem is still a thing and I am getting quite frustrated.

To recap: I have no uninstaller.exe literally anywhere, I have added the installers to my exclusions on my AV, disabled my AV when installed, got an uninstaller.exe from a friend, tried uninstalling via windows program uninstaller and CCleaner. Non of these have fixed my problem.

Out of curiosity. Where is FSX/P3D installed on your PC?
Please provide the entire install location. i.e. C:\Program Files (x86)\...etc.

Just trying to fugure it out. Mine installs to D:\Prepar3D v4\ on my PC, and D:\Games\Prepar3D v4\ on my laptop.

Both are Win 10 Pro 64bit, butmy laptop is closer to your situation, and yet both my PC and laptop have uninstallers for all of my installed CS products.

Prepar3D v4, on both, are included in my AV exclusions list, as are the installer locations.

Do you have the 757 ACE icon in Start>Programs>Captain Sim>757 Captain III?

No, I have an inactive 757F uninstall shortcut since there is no installer and SimOps (P3D4)

As stated in the last post that mysteriously disappeared and at the very top of this post, I have already done exactly what is in that link with regards to my AV but obviously it has not worked.

The fact that your AV was disabled at some point does not mean the product is not damaged now. If you got any AV or just Windows 10 the product can be damaged by them at any moment.

So just for shits and giggles I redownloaded the installers and it gave me an option to repair and remove. I tried to remove that didn't really do much, but when I hit repair it now works...? Not sure why it never gave me that option before.
