Installed CS4, can't uninstall CS3

[Douglas...@adobeforums.com]

Hi. I had CS3 installed, and then installed CS4. CS4 seems to be working fine, so now I want to unistall CS3.

Unfortunatley, in Add/Remove programs, there's no uninstaller for CS3! There's one for CS4 though.

How the heck do I uninstall CS3 if there's no uninstaller?

I have Vista.

Thanks
Doug

On my machine there's an entry for Add or Remove Adobe Creative Suite 3
Master Collection.

There is no requirement that you uninstall CS3, and many of us leave it in place for working with legacy files. Removing old versions after a new version is installed can sometimes have undesirable consequences, like removing file associations.

I understand there isn't a requirement for removal of CS3, I just don't need it any longer.

I don't have an option in Add/Remove for Adobe Creative Suite 3, only CS4.

I suppose in order to clean up, I may have to remove CS4 and then attempt to remove CS3, then reinstall CS4.

I could be asking for more trouble than it's worth though.

Is there an uninstaller out there I can download?
