Can someone help me out and tell me how to completely delete PCM 13 from my PC? Because I have problems with activating the key... re-installing did not work, so I want to completely delete PCM 13 from the PC. Also delete the "keys" on the PC.
So who can help me out? |

Umm, I think, if you delete the folder in program filesx86 called Cyanide, then your PCM season, that deletes most the stuff.
Then in my documents, there is a PCM20whatever folder. Delete this too, almost everything will be gone.
Not sure why you'd want to delete this though

There are 3 file locations: program files, my documents and appdata
But the key is stored in the registry, there are also 3 locations in the registry if I remember correctly. |

i wwould also like this explained in more detail as my pcm 12 version is unplayable due to time gaps on flat stages and no time given on MTF stages. I tried deleting it but says its still activated on my comp. But i want to completely get it off and do a clean reboot and see if it works. Thanks |

There is nothing more to explain, but here a description by Cyanide:
Cyanide wrote:
Reset the settings of Pro Cycling Manager 2011:
(Beware, it will erase your progress if you don't make a copy of the folder named Users)
A. My documents
1. Click Windows Start button and click My Documents or Documents.
2. Delete Pro Cycling Manager 2011 folder.
3. Run Pro Cycling Manager 2011.
B. Roaming folder
1. Open Computer then Local Disk (C .
2. Open Users folder.
3. Open your username folder.
4. Open AppData folder (*)
5. Open Roaming folder.
6. Delete Pro Cycling Manager 2011 folder.
7. Run Pro Cycling Manager 2011.
(*) Note that on some Windows systems the application data folder is hidden by default.
Here is how to make it visible:
Open the Folder Options by clicking the Start button and click Control Panel.
On the Control Panel, click Appearance and Personalization and click Folder Options.
On the Folder Options, click on the View tab.
Under the Advanced settings, click Show hidden files and folders and click Ok.
It is old but still valid, just replace 11 with 13. The last step is not needed if you only want to uninstall the game. But maybe you want to follow this guide before deleting completely.
And to delete the key in the windows registry. Start regedit, then search for cycling. You should find and delete 3 folders related to pcm13. |

DW ive just deleted all keys and binary, and Lachi do you think by doing a clean install with everything it will work? I tried just using local db even that dint help so its not the daily db, What could make my pcm 12 give time gaps on flat stages and sometimes no timegaps on mountain day? I own pcm11, 12, 13 and its just pcm 12 |
