When I try to install game and I get the message problem saying this Summary not available. This may be a result of an invalid summary type request - e.g. requesting an install summary when an uninstall has occurred. It driving me up the wall as I have check Program files and been uninstall before and game folder is gone. Could anyone help me to know where the Hidden files is that is still there that need to be delete then i can Install the game without having problem above! p.s. My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate Last edited 2010 |

Already checked your regedit ? Somtimes some values remain stuck there |

How do I check the Regedit please? |

@Hotshot2005: What Vampyre is saying is that you will have to edit the registry using regedit to remove any information that the software has install there and restart the computer. But unless you know exactly what you are doing your could trash you system. Your best bet is to use a registry cleaner or a system maintenance tools something like System Mechanic Pro but always back up your registry before you use any of these tools. |

Thank you for warning :) Is CCleaner any good and will that clear out the registry that the software been uninstall before? |

Don't know about CCleaner you'll have to have a good look around to see what the reviews are for any tool before you decide to use/buy. At the moment I'm using System Mechanic Pro 10 and haven't had any problems so far. Oh and don't forget to make a system restore point as well. |

System Mechanic Pro 10 ? interesting.....I going have good look at that because I am fed up of not getting my Fav game to installed because it keep saying Summary not available. This may be a result of an invalid summary type request - e.g. requesting an install summary when an uninstall has occurred. It does drive me up the wall when I see this! sigh! |

CCleaner = YES Just about the best tool in the whole universe. It is precisely what you need for such tasks! Strong recommendation! Everyone using Windows should have CCleaner installed anyway. Run it every couple of days and you will notice the difference. I cannot emphasise this enough: there is no reason for anyone not to have this installed. Last edited 2010 |

What game are you trying to install? Or does it do this on all game installs? IMHO do not use any of these so called registry cleaners. Your option, your asking for trouble. |

It is old Game FM 2007 that I am trying to install.....it work fine with other games |

Revo Uninstaller Pro should do it, i used it recently to uninstall a particularly tricky piece of security software. http://www.revouninstaller.com/ |
