The following is excerpted from a MetaLink Document (Note:74955.1):

Delete your Oracle Home directory and all subdirectories associated with it. For example:
- On Windows 95/98, the Oracle Home might be C:\Orawin95
- On Windows NT, the Oracle home might be C:\Orant
Export your registry for backup purposes.
Delete the following folders from your registry:
Run Regedit.
Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
Expand Software.
Delete the "ORACLE" folder.
Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
Expand SOFTWARE.
Delete the "ORACLE" folder.
Reboot your machine.

You'll need administrator rights to change the registry.

Hi guys,

Please direct me to the correct documentation for this! I have a developer
using Oracle 8. We need to unistall it (On Windows NT). I have not had to unistall version 8 before but found that there is no universal installer. I tried to go into the Custom install to see if it would let me remove options,
but Dr. Watson wont let me get by this.

I hit the internet and found an artical regarding the fact that there is no
unistaller for Oracle 8 client and that it must be removed manually. Of course
there were no further comments! And it didn't mention anything about the Enterprise.

Can someone direct me to some documentation for manually unistalling Oracle
8 client AND server.

Thank you.

Hannah
