Subject:
UNINSTALL LANTASTIC 8.0 WHEN ADD/REMOVE AND THE UNINSTALL LANTASTIC 8.0 FAIL TO WORK

Solution:
There are two possible ways to remove the LANtastic 8.0
1) In the LANTASTI\WIN95 directory is a program called NETREMOV.EXE. This can be used to remove the Windows 95 registry entries. To do so, go to the Start button, and choose Run. In the Open box, browse and find the NETREMOV.EXE in the LANTASTI\WIN95 directory. Run it and it should remove the necessary items.
2) If method 1 above fails, or if the NETREMOV.EXE doesn't exist, then you can do the following. FIRST - BACKUP THE REGISTRY! The changes that follow are in the Windows 9.x Registry and such changes could leave the computer in an unbootable state if not done properly. If such a problem occurs it is important that a backup of the Registry exist, or else it may be necessary to reinstall Windows 9.x and all other programs again. Second, once the registry has been backed up, go to the Start button and choose Run, and put REGEDIT in the Open box and click the OK button.
The Registry Editor will start, and you need to click the + symbol next to the following items: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services
In here, you will see a folder (key) named LTNP32. Remove this folder.
You will also see a Lantastic folder (key). Click on the + next to Lantastic and you should see several folders (keys) beneath it. One should be AFSD. Remove this folder as well
At this point, close the registry editor and reboot the computer. You should now be able to install LANtastic 8.0.
