Vista - Problems Uninstalling Adobe CS3 Master Collection.

Hi all,

I'm new on this forum and I was wondering if someone else had previous issues on the subject or knows how to get around it.

I've been using Adobe suit collection CS3 and when I accidentally updated it I had a few issues with some of the programs. So I downloaded another Suit and tried to overwrite the old version with this new one. But it didn't install. So then I tried to uninstall The old Adobe suit from control panel but it would not happen. It would simply just bluff a loading mouse and then nothing would happen. Now I can not intall a new one and the old one is completely disfunctional. The message I get when I try to open a program is "The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call custumer support."

Anybody know anything about it, let me know.

Thanks

i have installed/uninstalled it many time without any problems i know that you have to uninstall it before you can do a fresh install of it. try uninstalling it via the dvd, what i mean is put the dvd(of one you have installed) and once the adobe menu comes up, first click Install Creative Suite or something like that. It will bring you to a second menu where it give you options to either, reinstall, add components and uninstall. <--- uninstalling it this way should not give you problems

Hi Saturn,

you'll have to use the Adobe CS3 Clean Script

hope that helps!
