Hello everyone, as some of you might know NetBeans 6.9 has been release, now I already have 6.8 installed on my computer. The problem is that whenever I try to uninstall NetBeans 6.8 I get some weird error and I don't know how to fix it.

Here is what I get:

The specified targer component - nb-base/6.8.0.0.0
was not found in registry. The isntaller
can continue as if the target component was not specified.
Click Yes to continue, No to exit the installer

So I clicked Yes and nothing happens NetBeans is still there. Thanks in advance.

Use revo uninstaller to remove it. Google it!

I always delete the .nbi,.netBeans,.netbeans-derby ,.netBeans-registration folders
and empty any server folders when re-installing netbeans. On re-install it will tell you if a folder needs to be empty.

And revo will do that for you :)
