UNINSTALLING

Caution

The 8.9.1 release cannot be combined with any other versions prior to 8.8.0. All pre 8.8.0 products must first be uninstalled and then the 8.9.1 release installed. The instructions to uninstall will disable all Thoroughbred Windows based products.

The following describes how to properly uninstall a previous release of TS ODBC DataServer to prepare the system for the 8.9.1 installation.

These instructions assume you had previously installed using the default folder C:\Program Files (x86)\TSODBC4NT. The folder names may vary slightly depending upon which products you have installed, the release and where the products were originally installed.

• Login using an Administrator account.
• Backup your application data and programs.
• From the Control Panel select the option to remove TS ODBC DataServer.
  Files not installed by the setup or files that have changed since the setup was run are not removed.
  If you have already uninstalled other Thoroughbred products some the following files will no longer
  exist. Erase the following folders and files:
  C:\Program Files (x86)\TSODBC4NT
  C:\Windows\Tsi.ini
  C:\Windows\tsiconst.ini
  C:\Windows\TBRED86.BAS
• We recommend running a reliable registry cleaner at this point.
• Reboot your system.
