UVK crashes when is opening Smart Uninstaller...

Post by Chester170 »

I tried to open Smart uninstaller after I updated to the latest version of UVK(V 10.3.0.0) and it crashed. Is anyone else having this issue?

Best regards!

No crash for me but when I right click an item and choose whitelist item it isn’t whitelisting it.

I think some malware is causing this. Thanks for your reply bill :)

OK, you guys please try this:
  1. Launch UVK, go to Tools and tweaks, switch to the File tools tab.
  2. In the Unlock a locked folder field paste this: %ProgramData%\UVK
  3. Press Unlock folder and confirm.
I don't know what is causing the issue yet, but I will fix it ASAP.

Sorry. Try C:\ProgramData\UVK

I noticed some issues with SU as well but wasn't comfortable with a bug report yet.... I guess I'll throw my vote in here for the bug :)

Unlocking c:\Programdata\UVK doesn't stop UVK from crashing here.

We purchased UVK and this is happening consistently with 10.3. Is there a way to download the previous version until this is fixed?

Hi xtekrepair. This issue should be fixed before the end of the day.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Bill, that's working fine for me. I right-click an item, it disappears from the list. I go back to Home, then come back to SU, and the item is still not listed. Isn't that how it behaves for you?

Hi Fred,

When I right click an item and then click whitelist selected it doesn’t do anything.

Fred,

I still can’t whitelist anything in smart uninstaller but it only seems to be relate to this one computer. If it makes a difference it has Windows 10 x64. UVK version 10.3.2.0. I deleted everything in my UVK programs folder except key, logo, icon & my uvksr file and reinstalled UVK with no change.

Hi Bill.

Please try this: Make a backup copy of your license, logo UVKSR file and other important files, and then do a clean uninstall from UVK's smart uninstaller. Then re-install and activate.

Let me know if it worked it out.

Odd. There is no entry for UVK in the smart uninstaller list. :shock: I tried ignore whitelist once in case it was whitelisted but it’s not there. How should I proceed since this is the case?
Thanks!

Bill, your case is really odd, LOL. If you don't mind that I check that out, I'd love to. If you're willing and available to let me remote, you can pm me a TeamViewer or TrustViewer id. Thanks.
