Uninstall CS3

May 8, 2012 3:20 PM

Hello

I've been running CS3 on a laptop* and I want to uninstall to make way for the 32bit versions of the Master Collection CS6. What is the best way to clear everything to put it in a good condition for CS6?

 

Cheers,

Ossie

*XPPro SP1 - 32 bit, Intel core duo, 2gb RAM.

    I don’t think it will even install on SP1 and that’s a pretty weak machine.

    What Bob said. CS6 requires SP3 and even then you will not be able to install the entire Master Collection. Some programs simply are only 64bit. and Bob is also right - using any program on your machine will be a major pain. It is considerably underpowered.

    Many thanks. My mistake I was thinking of our Win7 (SP1) editing machine. The laptop is Xp SP3. Not great, I know, but I only need a couple of programmes (32bit versions) from the full suite on the road, which is why I'm trying to clear out everything I don't need.

    I have found the uninstall download. I have a question. Does that uninstall or only clean up after performing an uninstall operation from the Windows Control Panel? If it actually uninstalls instead of just cleaning up after an uninstall, does that mean everything, including Acrobat?
