    I have used RemoveIT Pro fairly regularly over the years and have found it to be pretty good at removing some of the nasties that other programs miss. I went to install it today on a PC running Win2000 Advanced Server SP4 and it installed OK, but when I run it, it immediately errors out (see screen shot attached below). It's not a big deal, I'm just curious.... what's up with this?

    Thanks....

    Can't help you with your problem, but there is a new version released today. :cool

    RemoveIT Pro 5/7/2008 at http://www.majorgeeks.com/RemoveIT_Pro_d5205.html

    Maybe un-install your version, run CCleaner and install new version. Hope this helps. Bazza

    I use that app alot, too, dlb. I have never seen that message or even one similar.

    There is a contact address in About. (in the app menu)

    Bazza- this error is with the new version, and it's on a PC where I run CCleaner at least 3-4 times weekly... thanks tho'

    Muskie- :( Yeah, that's what I thought too.... very strange.... I've never had any trouble with RemoveIT before now. Thanks tho'

    :cry

    (I'll get over it... I was just kind of wondering if anyone else was having trouble with today's new release.... I guess not)

    Hi dlb

    Is it the first time you have used this in its later versions on W2k? as the developers only say its designed for XP/Vista ( they done from update logs a few core engine updates this year ) so it is maybe calling on an API location in the kernel it cannot access in W2K, GetNativeSystemInfo is a call on WOW64 to check if a PC is x86 or x64.

    Halo, MG link still shows as suitable for "Win All". :( :confused

    Emailed MA on the listing as the older versions may have been ok but looks as later ones are not.

    Yup. I remember running it on Win98SE a few months ago and it was OK, but that was January or February (I think :confused )

    OK. I was actually thinking that it's compatibility with W2K was on the outs, and it looks like that's where we're at.... thanks guys!
