www.workalone.co.uk is now drupal powered and the wiki is now a 'book' that can be edited by authenticated users using mediawiki syntax.
the host you install it on determines some of the facility you can enjoy - e.g.
If you’ve installed stuff that now won’t uninstal, claiming instead that unwise.exe cannot find install.log then this will help:
Don’t know what causes it, but you can open a command prompt box, (run cmd) go to the directory where the app you want to uninstall resides and see if there’s an unwise.exe file. Also, check to see that the INSTALL.LOG file exists. (If it doesn’t then that means that it has been deleted or something in which case your best bet is to install the app again and try uninstalling it afterwards)
Then all you have to do is type:
unwise INSTALL.LOG
and the app will be uninstalled… (you will then have to type ‘exit’ to close the command prompt box and may have to delete the directory manually.
