How to uninstall FAH service??

[LandShark]

I'm wondering how do I uninstall the OneClick FAH (single) service?? do I just delete the FAH folder?? :rolleyes:

[nikhsub1]

Stop the service. Go to regedit and delete: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\FAH

Delete the FAH directory in program files. Done.

I think FAH is the cause of the repeating key problem I keep having when using IE in vista64. I've tried to stop the service but I get a message saying wrong command then it lists the available flags of which stop is not one of them. I've tried to stop the service by using the task manager-rightclick-stop but I get a message saying not allowed. How do I get this stopped and uninstalled so I can put the standard windows one back and easily right-click pause or stop in the taskbar again? Thanks.

is the service running under a different user account than the one you are logged in as?

You can also run the config again and then tell it to remove the service can't you?

never seen that option anywhere

Ben, I've seen that. Surprised me a great deal.

If the client is already installed as a service, and it's restarted with the configonly flag, the very first question it asked was "Uninstall FAH as a service?"

Which took me aback, because I had always just removed it manually, when necessary.

I hasten to add though that Wedo's one click is siightly different than the standard FAH service (which I use), install. Might not work at all with the one-click installs.

no it still should it just uses different files to create the service but the registry entry will still be similar.

Wedo uses a different registry key name and command (-srvany) to launch FAH. Though I haven't tried, I don't beleive the stanford config will remove the Wedo one-click registry entries.

I mean t about manually removing it, Im sure the stanford config would not remove it for you. but the Wedo one-click should still show up in the services registry key

Nik's instructions work for sure on Wedo's one-click.

that is what I was saying :p

thanks for the replies. I got the service stopped finally by entering task manager then clicking the services button in lower right - find FAH and select stop. Perhaps simply right-click stop doesn't work for services like it does processes? At any rate turns out stopping the service didn't stop the repeat key problem I keep having. Specifically its anonomoly that I get only at my college's forums (University of Phoenix). Oddly enough I don't get that problem when running IE under Wine even if I'm running Linux in a virtual machine with wine - go figure.

Anyway now that I have the service stopped I'll try some of your suggestions here to still uninstall it as a service.
