problem re-downloading Delphi 7

well, a while ago i deleted my delphi 7, thinking i would never use it again(and because it was taking up space). as i recall, i uninstalled it, and deleted every thing else that had to do with it.

when i tried to download it again, because i was interested in making plugins, i got a "A previous version of Delphi 7 or Delphi 7 SE has been detected. Please uninstall first" error when i clicked the set up.

i looked in my program files, and did a search for the entire computer, and came up with nothing.

i did find a few .pas and .dfm files in the search with a path file of C:\Program Files\Delphi 7 SE\Projects

but when i looked again, the file wasnt there. i also tried using the run command in command prompt

wat do :(

i found a Delphi 7 Lite eddition, but it had no path file.

uninstalling it didnt solve the problem though :(

Have you checked your registry?

-.- Here's how to check...

1) Start
2) Run
3) Type in "regedit" with no quotes
4) Look under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Look in all of the folders and see if you can spot anything Delphi. DON'T delete anything tho, if you spot Delphi in there then post back or PM and I'll walk you through on how to get rid of it.
