Tim,

I had PlanG_Beta1 installed.  Now want to install v0.8.0.  I can't find out how to delete the Beta version.
It doesn't appear in the Add/Remove programs, nor in Program files.

I have used the search facility which brings up more than 60 files.  I have tried deleting these one by one, but many of them refuse to delete.

Would be glad of your advice.

Right-click on the Plan-G folder and select Delete. It's as simple as that.

Or you can just rename the folder...

Not simple, when, as I have described, I cannot find any folder for Plan-G.

However, I may know in a few minutes whether through the bliss of ignorance I have actually succeeded.   I went back again to "Search" and searched again for Plan-G, thinking I would try some more deleting.

It has been at it now for nearly an hour and has only so far produced the Readme for the Beta version.  First time round it showed sixty odd files within a minute or two.  Perhaps one of the files I deleted was the crucial one, and the others wouldn't delete because the base file was no longer there.  I'll report back.
