Uninstalling CFS3

Recommended Posts

I seem to recall somewhere that after installing OFF:BHaH, you can get rid of CFS3. I want to do this, as I can't see myself ever flying it, but I want to do it right. I don't want to mess up MP for instance. So, how is it done? Control Panel remove programs? Just delete the CFS3 folders?

 

What say those who know?

Hi Guys,

 

be careful using the uninstall option from the start menu, I have had occasions were it has uninstalled not just CFS3 but parts of my MAW and ETO install as well.

 

for my thinking the easiest way to do it is navigate to these 3 locations and delete the folders.

 

Main Game folder

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Combat Flight Simulator 3 (folder)

 

Apllication data folder

C:\Documents and Settings\Client\Application Data\Microsoft\Combat Flight Simulator 3.0 (folder)

 

Screenshot and mission dat folder

C:\Documents and Settings\Client\My Documents\Combat Flight Simulator 3.0 (folder)

 

these are the only folders that house files for CFS3, and will not harm any standalone installs such as OFF or ETO, MAW etc if they are deleted.

 

regards Rob.

Thanks for the locations to look for. I did an uninstall with the Control Panel, and it seems to have worked all right. Everything still seems to be working as it should, although the first time I opened OFF manager, I had to agree to the CFS3 user agreement again. I haven't tried MP online yet, but I can get it going by myself no problem. I'll check these other locations and make sure they're gone.
