*Warning: You will lose ALL your settings, metadata, playstate, cached images, plugins and Virtual folders.

How to uninstall

1. Open Windows control panel
2. Under “Programs” Click “Uninstall a Program” (Might be listed as Programs and features if not sorted by categories)
3. Select Media Browser from the list and click “uninstall”
4. Restart computer
5. Open Windows start menu, and type %programdata% and press enter
6. Find the folder “MediaBrowser” and rename it to MediaBrowser.old
7. Open Windows start menu, and type %programfiles% (on 64 bit Windows type %PROGRAMFILES(X86)% ) and press enter

Performing the steps above will not actually delete MB files from your computer, but they will be unusable by Media Browser. If you really want to remove all the Media Browser files off your computer, delete the 2 renamed Media Browser folders (Media Browser.old & MediaBrowser.old) in Program files and Programdata folders.

How to restore settings

Some of your MB settings can be transferred. After you performed the Uninstall steps above and reinstalled MB you can transfer the following settings from %programdata%\mediabrowser.old to %programdata%\mediabrowser

ImagesByName
Copy contents from %programdata%\mediabrowser.old\ImagesByName to %programdata%\mediabrowser\ImagesByName

Plugins
You should really reinstall them through the configuration wizard to make sure they are installed correctly.

Podcasts
Copy contents from %programdata%\mediabrowser.old\Podcasts to %programdata%\mediabrowser\Podcasts

Virtual Folders
Copy contents from %programdata%\mediabrowser.old\StartupFolder to %programdata%\mediabrowser\StartupFolder

PlayState(This will NOT work if SQL DB is enabled)
