Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Removing Older version of Oracle on NT
Interesting problem, I think I faced this with 816 and 815 once. I would think the easiest thing to do, if all that you are trying to do is get some hd space back would be to delete the Oracle 8.0 service and all of it's files. Messing with the registry might be a little difficult. You could probably search through the registry and at the least you will be able to remove any reference to the 8.0 home.
Question though, why don't you want to just reinstall? Besides the obvious that you can't, it would be a lot easier? Kev

Ken and Kirti,
Oracle MetLink DOC ID: 75061.1 deals with cleaning ALL Oracle products from a machine. Ken I suspect you could adopt this to your needs. I have used this document and found it to be sound enough except for one minor caveat. For Windows NT at Step 3, I'd make a note of the Oracle Homes that exist for use with step 12.
I you don't have access to MetaLink I could post it to the list but don't want to take up unnecessary bandwidth either.
HTH, Sean :)
