Directions for Uninstalling / Removing the U3 LaunchPad ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WARNING: BACK UP ALL OF YOUR DATA BEFORE YOU REMOVE U3
There are two ways to remove the U3 LaunchPad from your Cruzer.
First Method The first way is to use the uninstall option in the LaunchPad itself. To access this, simply plug the Cruzer in and follow these steps: - Click on the red square on your Desktop that says Cruzer, or click on the yellow and white U3 icon in the system try by the clock.
- Click on Settings
- Click on U3 LaunchPad Settings
- Click on Uninstall on the left side menu
- Follow the onscreen instructions. You may choose the option to back up and restore your data, but you should also have already done this manually, just in case something happens during the uninstall.
Second Method
Download the U3 Remover tool. Once download run the application. Message Edited by da-monsta on 09-22-2008 11:41 AM

ive read in other places that if you uninstall the software that you will be unable to reinstall it is this true.....i ask because back in January my brother got me my very first flash drive ever and it is a 2gig one with the software installed on it....and i am worried that if by some chance something happens "not that it has, or anything like that" just in case it does happen i would like to know for sure that i am not out of luck i for one really love the lauchpad and all the programs avaliable

When you say "Back up all your data" what data are you referring to (eg. Program Files, My documents, what)? I bought this to backup my "My documents" folder. I just bought this thing today and didn't understand when I clicked "yes" on keeping the U3 capability, that the thing would fill up (6.66GB) with something and now it's unuseable as a backup for files. I haven't figured out a way to open it to see what the 6.66GB is. I sure hope someone can help me.

back up all your data refers to the data that is on the drive that you want to keep. if all your data is still on your computer then you have nothing to worry about. on a side note u3 does not automatically copy anything to the drive. u3 is just an application platform that allows you to run specialized u3 applications from the drive. are you sure you did not let windows media player sync to it?
