Honestly, I thought these were a thing of the past. I was wrong.
In the past, uninstalling a badly written game from your PC could have unpredictable consequences. Often the uninstall program would remove something your computer needed, like a sound or graphics driver. The game arrogantly believes that since it installed the driver, that it wasn’t there before it came along.
Later, the industry cleaned up this problem by getting the install program to list everything that was on the PC before installation started. Then when being uninstalled, the program would only remove components that it installed, leaving the computer as it found it.
But I just removed Star Trek Legacy, a terrible game by the way, from my PC. And it’s reset my mouse settings for some inexplicable reason.
I started the computer today, moved the mouse and for a few seconds, I thought my arm wasn’t working. It was so slow…
