3.7.1 Uninstalling OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0

 

   The removal of OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0 from your system involves the 
   following two stage process: 


   °   The first stage is necessary to unlock the files that are in use on 
       the system by OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0. 


   °   The second stage performs the actual uninstallation of the OpenDoc for 
       OS/2 Version 1.0 components. 




   The following steps show you how to perform the first stage: 


   1.  If you have installed OpenDoc Multimedia for OS/2 on your system, you 
       have to remove it first. See "Uninstalling OpenDoc Multimedia for 
       OS/2" in topic 3.7.2 for information about how to do this. 


   2.  Delete from your Desktop the OpenDoc Templates and OpenDoc Shell 
       Plug-Ins folders and all of their contents.  (Figure 85 in topic 3.4.1 
       shows the folders that were installed for OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 
       1.0.) 


   3.  Delete the PARTREG.BTO, AVLSRVR.BTO, OPENDOC.INI, and OSA.INI files 
       (some of them may not exist) from the \OS2 directory on your boot 
       drive. 


   4.  Remove all references to OPENDOC from the CONFIG.SYS file.  You will 
       need to modify at least the following statements:  LIBPATH, PATH, 
       DPATH, HELP, BOOKSHELF, SET SOMIR and all others pointing to the 
       directory where you installed the OpenDoc for OS/2 components 
       (\OPENDOC is the default installation path). 


   5.  Reboot your computer. 




   After rebooting the computer, the system is ready to perform the second 
   stage of the OpenDoc for OS/2 Version 1.0 uninstallation process. 


   Perform the following steps: 


   1.  Open the Developer Connection folder on your Desktop. 


   2.  Open the Developer Connection for OS/2 folder. 


   3.  Open the Developer Connection Catalog. 


   4.  Select the IBM OS/2 (1/4) category from the Catalog main view.

   6.  Select the OpenDoc for OS/2 (IBM) line by clicking on it with the 
       mouse. 


   7.  Click mouse button two on the line to get the pop-up menu.
