Installing 64 bit version after unistalling 32 bit version

[Phillip Baird]

I am attempting to install the 64 bit version of Tortoise on a work machine that unfortunately had the 32 bit version on it due to an old image.

I uninstalled the 32 bit version, I get the error when installing "Please uninstall all 32-bit versions of TortoiseSVN before installing".

Ok, I go searching, and have deleted ALL registry keys and ALL files pertaining to Tortoise mentioned and I am STILL getting this damn error, WTF!!!!!

Is there ANY way to get rid of the damn 32 bit version? seriously, this is a joke.

Yes, it's a joke. TSVN was only written because the devs knew that this would happen to you at this exact point in time. It's been a huge conspiracy to pull a joke on you.

Anyhow... the problem is that there is an entry in your registry that shows the 32 bit version is installed. I'm not sure why uninstalling it didn't remove it.

A couple of options. Re-install the 32-bit version. Reboot. Uninstall the 32-bit version. Reboot. Install the 64bit version.

If that doesn't work try CCleaner. It will find installer entries that point to files that don't exist.
