Can't Play MOH:AA because of weird problem! Take a look

Post by Frosty Marine »

Hey everyone, I have a problem. I recently uninstalled Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, but the uninstall didn't work so I just deleted it ( my mistake). So then I try to reinstall it and it comes up as the MoH: AA Maintenance program where I repair, modify, or uninstall though none of these work properly (i tried all of them but it still kept showing up) so I can't really do anything (not even install the game). Help!

Sorry if it's too late,
Your problem is that MOH isn't deinstalled properly and somehow something in the registry wasn't cleaned up like it should be. Seen it before
Search your registry for the Medal of Honor entries and remove them.

Uninstall information

I've had some row with the uninstaller too, but the bug was not in the registry, but in Program Files\Uninstall Information (hidden folder). Inside, there are a lot of folders with random names, open a few and try to find out which one is MOHAA's (There is a file that contains the app name, but don't know which one). Once you found it out, delete that folder and you can reinstall MOHAA.

I really blame the creators of MOHAA for not creating a fine uninstaller though. The one they shipped is just crap.
