Deleting calibre 64 bit.

gchdevon · 12-17-2012, 06:20 PM

Hi.
I recently got a new computer and moved over my ebook file etc. It worked well. My new computer has a solid state disc as its "C" drive and it is relatively small. It was getting filled up with programs that automatically installed on the C drive without giving the option of installing on the normal hard drive. Anyway in the process of attempting to install calibre on to the normal hard drive and also install the 64bit version everything got into a mess. My ebook folders have duplicated books in them have duplicated, compressed files have been separated from the ebook files. I wanted to remove calibre and start again with my saved folder of well ordered ebooks. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to delete the 64 bit version. It has no uninstaller file in its program folder, revo uninstaller does not record it and hunter mode on Revo, aimed at the shortcut starts uninstalling other programs in the same folder.
I have attempted to re download both versions and repairing with 64 bit version and deciding to make do with the normal version does not work. Normal version installs in the 64bit files for some reason.
At a loss, any ideas? Hope this forum is the best one for posting this query, I wasn't sure which fitted it the best.
Thanks for taking the time to read if you got this far.
