The uninstall part I can do but...err...how do I remove traces of it from %APPDATA% and registry?
Click to expand...
Open a folder and enter %APPDATA% in the adress bar, you'll be moved to the said folder. Look for the manufacturer or the name of the software, delete that folder (that contains data for Ngenuity). For registry, open Registry Editor or launch regedit.exe, path: HKLM\Software or path: HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node if the software is 64 bit. Again, look for the manufacturer or the name of the software that contains Ngenuity, feel free to delete those entries. Reboot the PC, and install Ngenuity again. I hope it will help.

Turns out things were a bit more of a clusterf#ck than I thought. So much so that, in the end, I just decided that a proper cleaning of Windows was in order, so I did a complete re-install, wiped all of my drives so they're all squeaky clean, and went from there.

I'm mostly up to date with Windows Updates, but I have yet to install the latest one, 20H2. The question is, what ultimately borked the software? my nasty rig, or the 20H2 update?

I was worried as hell that a complete re-install wouldn't resolve my issues but... IT DID! I GOT IT WORKING AGAIN! Rainbow puke be gone!

thats what happens with software update, they just copy and paste over old files and it one 'accidentally' doesnt get named properly, it gets installed anyway. Then its /roll 2d10 and hope it all works.

Over at TenForums, a gent believed there was a sign that it's about to be an RC. Could mean released shortly.

I installed a clean version of 21H1 19043.867 as a non-insider. It became activated and has since received update to 19043.928 via Windows Update. It feels like the release of RC is close now.
