Windows Live Local: how to remove?
 

I installed the beta, and it seemed to crash my Outlook everytime I
used it, so I used Add-Remove Programs to unistall it.

Or so I thought.

After restarting Windows and Office and trying to schedule another
meeting, I see the "Location" tab still showing up.

Is there a way to delete any files that were overlooked by Add-Remove
Programs? I'm running Outlook 2002 SP3 on WinXP Pro.

What a mess!! The uninstall did not remove a key registry value, and if you just remove it, you may get errors when you open any existing appointments you created with WLL.

You'll need to edit the Windows registry. (Make a backup first). Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\O utlook\Custom Forms\Compose and remove the IPM.Appointment value you'll find there.

If you then get error messages when you open appts, create a new appointment, then choose Tools | Forms |Publish Forms, and publish it to your calendar folder with the name Location, which will result in a message class of IPM.Appointment.Location.

I spoke too soon -- new meetings don't have the tab, just the ones I
created under WLL.

So I think I'll leave well enough alone -- but thanx for the advice.
