Option 1: Format the HD and reinstall Windows. < gd&r >

Option 2: I would do a complete reinstall of VFP 5 then uninstall it. Then, I would do the same for 6.

Option 3: You could delete the directoreis where VFP resides, remove all the VFP*.* files in WinSys directory, and try to find all the VisualFoxPro entries in the registry.

I hate option 3 becuase I would doubt that would clean it all out. You also risk hosing your system. Even if there is a install logfile that contains everything that was installed and where, registry entries, etc., I still think that is a bad option. Obviously Opt #1 is a joke. So Opt #2 is best, IMHO.
