Problems with Uninstalling Incredimail Unfortunately there are various problems with uninstalling Incredimail this way. It leaves countless objects in the windows registry as well as leaving the C:\Program Files\Incredimail folder on the hard drive. With over 125 folders, almost 800 files, and close to 2200 registry keys created by Incredimail, removing it manually can be quite a chore. In many cases, a regular uninstall will leave the undeleteable file called imshext.dll on the hard drive or remove the option from Add/Remove Programs but leave most if not all of Incredimail intact. The problems removing Incredimail have been so numerous that even Microsoft has a support page on how to remove Incredimail files manually through the Windows registry. The Microsoft document is focused on fixing the error message "Cannot Find Incredimail.exe" when you open an attachment after removing Incredimail from your computer. From my experience though, this list is incomplete and still leaves bits and pieces floating around. Here is the list from Microsoft of the items in the registry that should be removed. Under the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT key, delete the following keys: \.ima \.imf \.imi \.imn \.ims \.imw \Applications\Impcontent.exe \Applications\Incredimail \Incredicontent \Incredimessage b. Under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key, delete the following keys: Software\Classes\.imc Software\Clients\Mail\Incredimail Software\Elishim\Protect\Browser (remove the Incredimail value) Software\Incredimail Software\Microsoft\Direct3D\Most Recent Applications\ (remove the NAME value that points to Incredimail.exe) \Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\Incredimail c. Delete the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Start Menu\Programs\Incredimail key. Because of the many emails I have received concerning how to remove Incredimail, I decided to create an automatic uninstaller for it. Of course, you could manually remove many of the items in the list above from your registry, but downloading an automatic uninstaller for Incredimail might be easier. Remove Incredimail Automatically I created the following uninstaller for Incredimail in hopes that it would help people in the many cases where the normal uninstall routine fails. The program will perform the following functions:
Now for the bad news, I spent a lot of time and energy creating an automatic removal tool for Incredimail, so I am actually charging for its use. Although, I want to keep the price down to roughly the cost for a cup of coffee and a pastry. Therefore, I am charging customers $4.95 for the removal program.
