PROBLEMS WITH SYMEVNT.386

[Harcee D. Dalwadi]

Configuration Information:
Version: NU95 version 3.x
Operating system: Windows 95a
------------------------------------------------------------

I was trying out the Norton Utilities 3.0 for Windows. It slowed
down my computer a whole lot so i had to delete it. The delete
function worked but somehow it did not delete the file SYMEVNT.386
for registry or system.ini. When i boot my computer it says i
deleted it but i was just wondering how do i delete it from my
registry so it won't come up everytime. Please help me with these
problem. I tried a lot of stuff but i still can't fix it. i looked
in every file. (win.ini, system.ini, etc.) I do not know where to
delete this file or line from so it won't come up when i boot my
computer up. PLEASE HELP ME. THANKS A LOT.

Harcee,

You can't just delete NU. In order to properly uninstall NU (and any
application designed for Windows 95) you need to open the Control
Panel, double-click on Add/Remove Programs and then select the program
from there.

Reinstall NU 95 and then uninstall it according to the instructions
above and the problems should go away.

I did as you told me too but it still did not fix my problem. It has
creates this folder called Symantec which has symvent.386. I don't
need that program. I deleted everything NU installs when it runs the
setup program. Please help me where i can take that line of the
registry. Please thanks a lot

Harcee,

Go to the Start menu, select Run and type in REGEDIT. From the Edit
menu, select Find (or hit Ctrl-F) and search for Symantec. Delete
these registry entries.
