How to fully uninstall M2:TW?

**Cataclysm** · April 04, 2007, 01:04 PM

Ever since I unpacked M2TW I've been having unspecified error crashes all the time. It was never really a big deal until I tried to play my Denmark Campaign and it refused to load and kept crashing. That was the last straw. I was up till 2 AM getting my Danish campaign that far. I decided to uninstall M2TW and reinstall it. After re-installation I noticed that all my saved games, and worse yet all my unpacked files were still there, along with all the crashing. My question is this: HOW DO I TOTALLY REMOVE M2TW??

Uninstall.

Reboot.

Go to My Computer. Then C:\Program Files\Sega\Medieval... Whatever the folder is named. Delete the game folder as it doesn't uninstall your save games and configs.

Then, if you want, run a registry cleaner program, but you don't have to.

And finally, do a clean install of the game.

Thats not the problem.

After you unpack, go to you Medieval II Total War folder, and find/open the data folder.

Scroll down, until you see

descr_geography_new.db
descr_geography_new.txt

Delete those two files.

descr_geography_new.db
descr_geography_new.txt

^^^^
that probably started the whole thing, after you have unpacked.
Simple, but it made you uninstall you whole game.....
delete those next time
