virgey Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I am adding a new 1 terabyte SSD, and I can't find anything in the Windows 7 uninstall window for the ORBX products. I want to re-install P3D, and all my ORBX products back into P3D on the new SSD. I also have FSX with all the same ORBX products installed as well, BUT I am only removing P3D, and then re-installing it to the new SSD as well as the ORBX products. Also I don't want to disturb my FSX installation when removing ORBX. Please advice. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Goff Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Hi virgey, This should get rid of all of it: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/30378-uninstalling-all-orbx-products-a-quick-guide/ And then uninstalling P3D and deleting the entire "Prepar3D" directory afterward should clean up everything. A registry tool like CCleaner can take care of any remaining registry entries that point to your old install. That'll start it all fresh on your system.

Ken Terry Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Why, uninstall and re-install, I filled up my 500GB SSD so I bought a 1TB SSD copied all files from my small SSD to the large SSD and it all worked fine. Here is a guy doing this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nQ8beZ2TQg Regards Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Thank you for your quick reply, but unfortunately I have been gone until recently, and have been unable to ask you another question before I actually make the change. What I wanted to ask is this, will this affect my FSX installation which has all the same ORBX products installed. My FSX installation is on a physically separate HDD. Thank you in advance.

Ken Terry Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 MJ I don't know the brand my computer Guru has it. Yes you can copy a spinning hard disk to an SSD. We also copied my 500GB spinning hard disk on to a 2TB Hard disk. Here is a quick search on Google http://www.startech.com/HDD/Duplicators/?page=all Regards Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries, there should be no impact on any other installations. Prepar3D has it's own independent registry entries from FSX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
