I have a question.
Do you remember when you gave me this:
1. Go to C:\Program files\Mozilla Firefox and delete everything (and including) the "mozilla Firefox" folder.
2. Go to start...and then run and type in %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ and hit ok. That will bring you to your FF profiles. You can delete that folder.
What I'm inquiring about is this:
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
Can you give me this or something like this to get rid of any files and folders that may be remaining on my PC.
Reason being, I play a lot of TRIAL games that have to be paid for, and after I'm finished playing, I UNINSTALL them. I don't want any traces of the game left on the PC, just in case I want to INSTALL the game again, so
I want to know if there is a PATH like the one above, or any path that you can give me to find the folder(s) that each game has, so I can delete it completely off of my PC, that's if the Uninstall hasn't already taken care of it.
I hope I'm clear about what I'm asking for.
Also, my PC is still running very well, thought you should know.
Thank U !!!

That is great news.Also, my PC is still running very well, thought you should know
I am afraid that you may not get all remnants of games and programs off the computer.
While an uninstall should remove all remnants, it does not always happen.
Some programs are better than others at cleaning themselves up.
Some will tell you during an uninstall that it could not remove all folders and will tell you where they are and what to safely delete.
Others will leave bits of info in the registry (and it will remain there).
To clean up programs after you uninstall them, pay attention to where they install and the folder names they are creating.
Usually they will default to c:\program files\<name of program>.
Then after the uninstall you can look there and delete anything left.
Hope this helps.

A question.
Christopher's PC has NO DVD/CD devices on the system, the message I keep getting is, there's only a PLAYER, but that's not true either, because I tried playing a DVD and CD, and it didn't work.
So, is there any way of downloading the devices that he needs to operate the system ???
I also think that I need to do a Bootable disc. for that PC, what do you think??

rshaffer:
I had NO idea that you had posted the ABOVE.
Let me tell you what happened, because I thought I was imaging things. After I asked Runner about the FireFox PATH he posted to me several days ago about deleting any of the leftover games I had installed, I got a E-mail notification that had YOUR name on the Notification, so I clicked and it took me to the answer that Runner posted to my question to him. So after I read the answer from Runner, I went back to my E-mail and there it was, a Notification with your name on it and NOT Runner.
This is actually the 2nd time this has happened, I didn't say anything about it because I thought it was something I was doing wrong, but, that's how I got it.
So, this is the first (1st) time I'm seeing your post. Go figure.

basic cd player with the capability to make cd's and\or capable of erasing cd's and writing new information to them.
Does the front of the player says DVD?

You hit the button to open that one and it does nothing;
The 2nd drive says DVD-writer/CD-writer. The drawer opens to this one.
But when I inserted a DVD/CD in the 2nd one, it did nothing,
no loading and no movement.
Before I disconnected his PC, I tried to download Microsoft's Diagnostic Tool,
and a box pops up and basically says that not enough memory to write on.
The PC is not hooked up and can tell you no more about it unless I connect it.

To make things easier on you we can continue in this topic if you would like.
We will need to have Christopher's system online to do alot of th work. The only other way is for you to download the programs on your system Not a great ideal)
I would prefer we are using the system with the issue.
The first thing we will need to do is to get a Everest Report which will tell me a lot about the system right away.

I can hook the PC up sometime early Sat and can start then if you choose.
In the meantime, I'm having problems with Outlook Express.
It's taking too long opening up.
Because I do a lot of Copy and Paste, I've noticed that when I want to enlarge the text, it won't enlarge, the text stays the same. Also, when I highlight something, it appears like the highlight goes crazy, like it won't let me control it.
Does it sound like Outlook is corrupt and if it is, is there some thing that can be done about it??
