How to uninstall a semi-install???
Does anyone know how to uninstall something that has only installed halfway?? Because I as installing Adobe Illustrator CS3 and it said close down Firefox and Internet explorer, so I closed Firefox but I wasn't running IE so I hit ctrl-alt-del and accidentally shut down explorer.exe and not iexplorer.exe.........Sigh I'm a dumbass I know....
Anyway when I booted my comp up again (I had to restart manually) the Illustrator Setup didn't start when I double clicked it :(
So I went to Add/remove Programs and it was there so I tried uninstalling it but nothing happens...Burning

I dunno what to do!!!! SadistFromabove

you know you could have just gone new»task»Explorer instead of shutting it down

Just re-run the installer, it should install cleanly over

system restore?

also, when one closes explorer.exe accidentaly or not, you go to file>New task and write "explorer.exe" on the window and click ok and it loads again
EDIT: DAMN roberth beat me to it

Try deleting the files that were already written ie the program files folder, then try reinstalling.
