    You never had a problem removing SAS from your computer?

    Took all kind of tools for me to get rid of it. (the last free
    version -whatever that was).

    The only removal tool I use is format. Since I use PortableApps for
    almost everything these days, when I have installed and uninstalled
    many programs to my hard drive, I just start over. Takes much less
    time than trying a bunch of cleaning tools.

    What sort of problems did you have and what OS are you using?
    I had a clean uninstall when I had the free version. I had installed it
    under "Total Uninstall" and just used Add-Remove to remove the program and
    then I used Total Uninstall to see what was left and it was basically
    nothing. I am using Win2000Pro.

    I'm also using W2K Pro.

    I don't remember the exact problem, I just remember that I kept
    getting some kind of error and it wouldn't uninstall. And when I
    finally did get it removed, I still had a desktop icon that I couldn't
    delete. I had to use some kind of tool to remove that.

    I now stay far, far away from SAS.

    I've been using both the free and pro versions on a couple of dozen
    different systems over the last year or two and have never run into any
    problems with uninstalling it. As far as I can see, your problem(s) appear
    to be the exception rather than the rule.

    Bummer. No way to duplicate the issue, no way to fix it should it ever
    come up again. Although your the first/only person I've heard of so far
    with this specific issue.
