VoiceAttack Clean Uninstallation
« on: April 06, 2017, 02:02:14 PM »
I've recently noticed that the major profile that I've been working on is starting to execute commands (one in particular) slower than it used to. I've been developing the profile across two PCs, and one of them seems to be running the profile just fine (CPU = i7-4810MQ) and the other is getting bogged down (i5-3570k @ 4.0 GHz). I plan on doing more troubleshooting to try and get to the bottom of this. Obviously one PC has a newer and multi-threading processor (not sure that will matter here), but CPU load is always low on both machines.

Anyway I'd like to try and completely fresh-install VoiceAttack on the "slower" PC. What is the recommended to way to uninstall VoiceAttack and leave no traces of it on the PC?

I'm not sure whether anything is written to the registry, but removing the "%APPDATA%\VoiceAttack\" and "%LOCALAPPDATA%\VoiceAttack.com\" folders will make VoiceAttack behave as if it were a first/clean install.

Thanks for the comment Pfeil, I'll give that a try.

As a reference note, I had no issues running my "slow" command on a PC with an I5-2500k...so I'm going to have to dig into this further to determine what's happening on my PC to cause VoiceAttack to slow down.
