I really don't know what you are talking about.  The icon for this thing
does, indeed, say "Installation/Deinstallation" but there are _no_
deinstallation options.

First I get a page that says This is a binary distribution, etc.  It has
the blurb about scripts (actually skripts), a Next button and an exit
button.

When I click Next I get a license page with no license displayed and
Back, Agree, Exit buttons.  Back and Exit are obvious.

If I select Agree I get a page that says "Select the Installation you
want to perform," three installation options and Back, Next, Exit
buttons.  No matter how far I go I never see any deinstal, uninstall,
delete or remove options.

As I posted somewhere, some time, I can remove 0.53 (by renaming the
directory).  I also found the GI properties to point to install.exe in
the root of my CDRecord drive.  I renamed that from my boot partition as
well as a .log and .ini file.  But the 0.56 installer still said I
needed to remove the old version.

I went on past that and it errored out citing a syntax error in a
script.  So still no DVD capability.

>It is a bit of a messy procedure,

You can say that again.

Thanks - until you are better paid.  ;-)
