Control Panel - Programs and Features - PinballX - Uninstall

Yes, I rebooted several times, both standard and safe modes. I finally managed to delete the file and folder. It appears to be related to inherited security properties. I had to modify Flash.ocx properties, delete all users, add back myself as the owner, and set Full Control permissions. Only then was I able to delete the file. Here were the steps I had to follow: 1. Turn off simple file sharing in :tools *options :view 2. R CLICK file -CLICK properties -CLICK securities tab -CLICK advanced 3. -NOW remove all users AND re-add ONLY 1 USER admin (you) 4. un-check the inheritance box 5. Grant Full Control 6. Save then delete

I am not able to move the entire directory as Flash.ocx cannot be moved (i.e. copied and then deleted). I need to enable the ability for Flash.ocx to be deleted. OS: Windows 7 64 bit

I installed PinballX today and I discovered that it would not allow me to change the default installation direction. I prefer to have my emulators and frontends stored in a directory other than C:. After the install, I attempted to uninstall PinballX. The uninstaller script ran successfully -- it didn't present any errors -- but it did not remove every file. In the PinballX directory is the file: Flash.ocx. I cannot delete it manually, even with Administrator access. I attempted to delete it while in Safe Mode but it would not allow me. What do I have to do to get the Flash.ocx file deleted from the PinballX directory so that I can then delete the PinballX directory on C:? Does it have to be unregistered? Will this impact my standard Flash app? Also, is it possible to change the installer to allow users to select the installation directory? Thanks!
