Default Can't uninstall FM 08 demo

I've installed successfully FM 08 gold (strawberry) demo but i can't uninstall. I have the latest Java runtime enviroment update 3 package, tested at www.java.com but when i try to uninstall using add/remove i get that error message:

How can i fix it? That's really disappointing!
The only problem i had with java is with FM 08

Well, delete the demo folder and all other files related to it that you can find.

Then run a index scanner to remove all traces of it. that should do it.

Searched this on the web. It seems unix/linux related. What operating system do you have?

It's Windows XP. What you mean by saying index scanner? This problem is common and special just for FM 08. There are some non-solved posts in that forum

Completely disappointment. Thank God there's demo. Otherwise i would waste my money on buying this game. CM 4 was the latest and the greatest release of these series.

Not about problem: If you uninstall files manually, you'll need to delete registry entries manually though. :thdn:

Have you tried add/remove programme? If not then yea you would have to delete the FM Gold Demo folder, then find all the registry entries and delete them one by one.

Just make sure you don’t delete files that are not related to FM you could cause some serious errors to your operating system.

I know FM08 is the latest, i meant CM 04 was the most lovely and stable game which i played as "last". It had enchancement packs as well. But it was more bug-free. CM 5 was bad. There became an re-construction after splitting as CM and FM. That's why CM is killed.

Who doesn't remove a software/game (FM 08) elsewhere? Of course add/remove programs i tried. Even, there must be a uninstaller entry in start menu which is not there.

However it become a bad experience, it's still very annoying not to be uninstall as a normal human.

Indeed, having dependecy with Java is very risky, there are a lot of users who update their Java packages automatically, maybe it may harm the game in future. There wasn't such thing in old version of managering games like Championship Manager which has connection with Java.
