Hi All,
I have nokia 3650 and i tried to install Psiloc irRemote full. but unfortunetly it was crashed and after i cant uninstall the program through application Manager. it always giving system error when trying to remove. i checked through FEexplorer and found some files regarding Psiloc ir Remote are copied c:/nokia/install and has read only permission. i tried through nokia Pc suite. but due to this read only attribute i'm unable to delete.
what should i do..? please help. is it any file manager for changing the read only attribute..? If i delete files from c:/nokia/install does it create any problem..?

thanks in advance.

regards,
baiju.

The files in the install folder are uninstallers of the programs only, deleting it would only delete the uninstaller which contains the paths of the files the program needs to find and delete if executed.

I downloaded one software called Pc file manager and through that i change the read only attribute. after i'm able to remove the program through App. manger without any problem.

thanks to all.

Removing all Psiloc applications, including all 'Common...' components (if any) - can be done from Application Manager. After that please restart your phone and reinstall the program from our web site once again. Please install application in phone memory.
