I carefully read the manual and I do not see any information on how to uninstall AS 2012. I note there is no uninstaller with the program. I presume one first restores the backup and then uses the Windows uninstaller.

 

The reason i ask is that I wanted to try the beta updates, but want to make sure can uninstall and reinstall fresh copy if things do not work out. Some in the forum indicated that since they installed the Beta 1 2012 update they can no longer restore their backups textures. The one cannot uninstall the program because the AS textures will not be replaced by default FSX textures

Greg,

 

I see windows (control panel) does have active sky 2012 uninstall, just like for other programs ... are you sure you do not?

If this is true, I think I'll bypass trying the beta.

Usually when doing the uninstall, AS2012 will restore the backup. then after loading the beta, if you try to "restore" the backup it isn't there. you need to create a new one after uninstall.

 

I have had no problems installing and uninstalling the beta's as it related to backup textures.

Is there a way to uninstall Active Sky 2012 textures? I am replacing them with textures from Rex 4 Texture Direct and Rex Soft Clouds.

Just install the REX textures over the AS2012 textures. The REX textures will overwrite the AS2012 that you select in REX.
