XCLN: Setup Doesn't Remove Icons in Non-Default Group (146706)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Client 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Client 5.0
- Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Windows NT client 5.0
This article was previously published under Q146706 SYMPTOMS
The removal option of the Microsoft Exchange client Setup program for
Windows NT will not remove program icons if the Microsoft Exchange client
was installed in a non-default program group. The Windows 3.x and Windows
95 versions of the Microsoft Exchange client Setup program will do this
correctly, however, even though they will remove the icons, they will not
remove the empty program group.
MORE INFORMATION
Windows 95 is different than the other two because Windows 95 has an
Add/Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel. This will allow you to
remove the Microsoft Exchange icon from the Programs menu.
Another problem that will occur is that if the icons are moved from the
original (default) program group to another, Setup will run correctly, but
the icons will not be removed from the new group. In addition, if the
original (empty) group is left in program manager, it will not be removed.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Exchange
Windows clients. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
