November 19, 2011 8:35:32 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

even with tiles closed I'm getting several dll files that appear to be active and will not let me delete the program.

what is the proper process for deleting the program?

not what I'm looking for, unless of course, tiles doesn't come with an uninstaller. are you indicating that tiles can not be uninstalled except by utilizing a third party application?

I know this may be seen as nitpicking, but isn't meant that way as I know several people who like to delete things.

 

Never "delete" an installed application. Always uninstall. Deletion doesn't uninstall registry entries, doesn't stop running services, it simply deletes.

 

If you mean uninstall when you say delete, please disregard this reply.

You said there were files which wouldn't close so you couldn't uninstall. That app will let you close all those files...then uninstall.

Or not.
