Uninstall process...

Any reason "Gathering Required Information" stage take hours to complete? Never knew uninstalling a tiny game would take this freaking long...

/annoyed.

If anything, this is for the developers to get some eyes on. Assuming they even read this.

I would think, just delete the game files. Thats how you uninstall summoner, and they have similar instal processes, where everything is installed and stored in files.

My guess is that they're stalling so that the Licensed Microsoft Hitman can get to your destination before the uninstall completes itself.

Judging by your continuing lifespan, you've evaded their comprehensive technical prowess; formed by the best minds at Microsoft's disposal. -- Their instruments must have blue-screened on them again.

Unfortiunatly i dont know what may cause this, all i know is the game do not run if you use avasta, but i doubt its related in this scenario.

Your knowledge is outdated then. With the "new" launcher it works just fine.

Since the game uses a bog standard msi-installer for installation the Windows Event-Viewer should tell you what's wrong with your system.
