Uninstalling, Removing

 
Uninstall ATM

A few ways to initiate this:

  • Click the Windows start button, navigate to the "Thinking Stuff's ATM vX.Y.Z" group, click "Uninstall Thinking Stuff's ATM"
  • Click the Windows start button, then Control Panel, then "Add/Remove Programs" (XP and below) or "Programs and Features" (Vista and above). Find the right version of ATM and click to uninstall it.
  • Use something like Revo Uninstaller, which does a more thorough job of uninstalling stuff.
     

Delete extra files

If you are uninstalling for the purposes of upgrading to a new version, you are all done.

If you want to remove all traces of ATM from your machine, then there are some more steps involved. Uninstallers can only remove files that were part of the original installation. Any files created by the program itself are not removed, i.e. your settings files, the price history files, etc. You will have to delete them by yourself.

  • The settings files. Only you know where you created these. They end in .tsatm so you could search your computer.
  • The price history files. They end in .tsphd
  • The ini file - search for tsatm.ini
  • The ATM installation directory, normally somewhere like "c:\Program Files\Thinking Stuff\ATM vX.Y.Z". Sometimes it might be left behind even though it's empty.

Everything is a nifty little tool which can search your computer in seconds.
