Uninstall experimental version

How do I uninstall the experimental 64-bit version? I installed it by
running the install.bat script, but the README doesn't say how to uninstall
it.

 

When I tried the experimental version, I couldn't get it to work on this
machine so I just installed the 32-bit version and used it instead.
However, I uninstalled the 32-bit version through add/remove in the control
panel and then restarted, but I still see the overlay icons on my files in
explorer, although there are no right-click menus. I'm assuming that these
overlays are being caused by remnants of the 64-bit version still in the
registry.

 

Thanks,

Cory

That tool is 32-bit, so it would only remove the registry keys from the
32-bit version (and only from the pre 1.2 clients).
You can of course just uninstall the experimental version, reboot, then
install the new version. I can't guarantee that the new version can be
safely installed on top of the experimental one (but you can do that
with all non-experimental versions).
