Hi Again I did this manualy by deleting all the program folders. Then searched the registry for "adobe creative" and deleted the keys, this took a while. then ran a clean registry mechanic. I dont suppose by any chance you have a script that can search the registry for a keyword and delete the key automaticaly? Cheers Steve

Thanks Smartee that worked and the script runs without error. CS2 still remains though which is a pain. When I click on the program instead of running its asking for a serial number to personalize your software and it wont take my serial number. I was hoping for a total removal by force :-) Thanks for your help I think Im a step closer Steve

Thankyou both for your help. yes that key does exist. I dont know anything about using scrips so it must be the way im using it. I downloaded autoit and put it in the editor. I compiled it with no errors but whan I run the exe it says error on line 66 variable used without being declared. So I used SyntaxCheck prod, which I assumed was like a pre flight check ind it gives the warnings and errors below. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Can anyone help me with this script? I found it on this site in an old post. I have a corrupted Adobe creative suite CS2 which I cant remove.
