 ? Ive been learning and playing with MC for around a year or so and finally feel comfortable using it (Audio only). During the learning process ive had MC10 & 11 installed in different areas. At this time I would like to start over with MC11 with a clean install, even maybre re-ripping my collection(Ape & Mp3). My question is? How do I make sure all previous MC entries are cleaned off my system before I reinstall? And if I do re-rip(which I'm leaning towards) how do I make sure all files are removed? Input appreciated. Thanks.

I have written some instructions (unofficial, but personally tested).

The basic uninstall & clean install/upgrade instructions are in this thread: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=27914.0. These instructions are safe and they should be enough. The tested instructions are in this post: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=27914.msg194327#msg194327. However, you should read the whole thread.

The instructions in this thread go a step further and include Windows registry cleaning steps (These are potentially less safe and they are needed only when certain registry problems exist):  http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=26917.0.

Deleting the media files using MC is easy, but if you have them outside MC you can use Search in Windows Explorer. You could search for the filename extensions, for example: .mp3.

Thanks Alex. Yeah I guess my post wasnt clear but I was interested in removing all registry entries so thanks for the info on that. Anything else to add? Anyone?
