Joanne,

I noticed you are having a problem uninstalling your WeatherBug program. 

BASIC WEATHERBUG UNINSTALL

To begin the WeatherBug uninstall process, please make sure the program is not running. 
If there is a WeatherBug icon / temperature visible in the lower right corner of 
your screen, right click on it and select "Exit WeatherBug".

To permanently remove the WeatherBug from your system after you have closed the program:

1. Click START (from lower left of computer screen)
2. Select SETTINGS and CONTROL PANEL
3. Double click ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS
4. Select "WeatherBug" from the list of applications
5. Click ADD/REMOVE and follow the instructions

This should perform a full uninstall of the WeatherBug application. We recommend 
the basic uninstall to simply remove the program from your computer.



ADVANCED WEATHERBUG UNINSTALL

If you need to remove any remaining files from the registry, after completing the 
above uninstall, continue to the following steps:

1. Click on the Windows START Button then select RUN.
2. In the RUN box, type "regedit" (without the quotes) then click OK. This will open 
your Windows Registry Editor (following ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS, some of these keys will 
already be removed -- if you do not find a key, please move on to the next step).
3. Click on the plus sign next to the folder named HKEY_CURRENT_USER
4. Click on the plus sign next to the folder named Software
5. Click on the folder, "AWS," to highlight it
6. Press the DELETE key on your keyboard and choose "YES" to delete this folder
7. Click on the plus sign next to the folder named Microsoft
8. Click on the plus sign next to the folder named Windows
9. Click on the plus sign next to the folder named CurrentVersion
10. Click on the folder named Run to highlight it (only the "Run" folder)

In the right-hand pane, look for a line stating "Weather." If you see it, please 
click on it to highlight it then press the DELETE key on your keyboard and select 
"YES."

To delete the AWS directory: Click Windows START, PROGRAMS, and WINDOWS EXPLORER. 
If you accepted the default installation, please click on the "+" beside PROGRAM 
FILES and then highlight the AWS folder. Press the DELETE key on your keyboard and 
select YES or OK.

While still in Windows Explorer, click on the WINDOWS folder to highlight it. In 
the right-hand pane, scroll all the way to the end and look for a file labeled "WeatherBug.ini." 
Highlight the file and press the DELETE key on your keyboard and select YES or OK.

(On some versions of Windows, you may have to click on a link in the right-hand pane 
of EXPLORER and select a link that will show all files in that folder).

Restart your computer and the uninstall is complete.
