#139 Unable to remove Sagethumbs from Win10 entirely.
Attempted to removed sagethumbs due to it constantly crashing Explorer. Despite doing a full uninstall, it doesn't seem possible to remove Sagethumbs completely. Even after uninstallation on Windows 10 and clearing thumbnails via Win10 Disk Cleanup -> Clean thumbnails, thumbnails are still being generated for files like TGAs and PSDS which is horribly frustrating as it's still crashing explorer.
Advisory on how to get rid of Sagethumbs and all related files + reg entries would be appreciated.
SageThumbs installs as 2 binaries to C:\Program Files (x86)\SageThumbs\32\SageThumbs.dll (32-bit version) and to C:\Program Files (x86)\SageThumbs\64\SageThumbs.dll (64-bit version). You need to unregister (i.e. run: regsvr32.exe /u "C:\Program Files (x86)\SageThumbs\32\SageThumbs.dll" and regsvr32.exe /u "C:\Program Files (x86)\SageThumbs\64\SageThumbs.dll" respectively) and delete both, this is what an uninstaller does for you.
