- It's on disk 8 of the CSD, if I recall correctly. Use unpack to
- get it. I.e., cd to \os2\install, and then say
- unpack a:\os2\fix\uninstall.ex@
-
- [I'm doing this from memory, so you might have to check that
- I've got the details right.]
-
- Then go back to the WPS, copy a program file from the Templates
- folder to the folder where you keep stuff like install, and install
- uninstall. Voila. It works for me.
-
- Only one gotcha: if you install something from the original GA disks,
- you have to re-run the CSD upgrade, since you can never be quite
- sure that part of the upgrade hasn't been overwritten by the GA install.
- This is mentioned in a readme somewhere.
-
- Good luck.
