how do we FULLY remove ifw? leaves lic key behind

[Bob Coleman]

While I generally prefer forum based support, it might be better to email Terabyte support directly if you want something badly in a hurry.

It might also not be fair to post on a weekend and expect a response within 24 hours.

zfactor,

I'm going to do something similar with a fresh install of Win8.

[Brian K]

zfactor, I get the same result as you. It looks like the serial is still present after the uninstall.

Did you clean out the registry as well or just do a normal
uninstall?

I know when I do a restore on Thunderbird even after looking
for every Comcast link I could find, the restored file still
came in with Comcast. It could be hiding in one of the files
that have only alpha/numeric names so a search does not find it.

of course the registry was cleaned if you read the whole thread i have 26 years + experience im not a newbie to this stuff. im currently investigating this myself. im working on it now. if i figure it out before anyone responds ill get with you on the other forum brian. thanks for confirming what i see.

Run imagew.exe from the command line....

IMAGEW.EXE REGISTER

will allow you to enter a new name/key.

IMAGEW.EXE FeK_93584

will invalidate the key that is currently installed. Note that the key will
never work again on the computer, so don't do it as a test, do it only when
you are invalidating it on that computer, you'll need to purchase a new key
for that given system if you use that special parameter.

what i mean is not how we uninstall it... but i am giving my older desktop
to a friend and it currently has my ifw installed. i went ahead and removed
ifw but now i see if someone re-installs it they will be using my lic key
since it does not ask for a new key if it gets reinstalled. i want to
uninstall and REMOVE my lic key from this system. i dont want someone to
just go ahead and reinstall the program since they know i use it and be able
to have use of my lic key. i really think that when a uninstall is done it
should also remove the lic key.

so can someone from terabyte please contact me and help me to remove my lic
key from this system since i really dont want to reinstall windows before
giving it to him and i also dont want someone to have the key i paid for. i
will be much more cautious of what system i install it on in the future if
there is no easy way to remove the lic key or what if i had wanted to change
the lic key to a different one? i actually own 3 separate keys to ifw???

someone please get back to me as to how to do this. there has to be some way
to fully remove it???

thank you

Me too. Email support is so fast it's like IM.
