Information on uninstalling the old version of Process Guard
Please follow these steps to be sure you have no problems.
1) Start the old version as normally, and it shouldn't complain that it couldn't attach to the driver. If you have this problem, get it to attach first before proceeding, or see manual uninstalling at the bottom of this thread.
2) Now CLOSE Process Guard, allowing uninstallation.
3) UNinstall from the Programs menu, then reboot your machine
Step-by-Step guide to Manually Uninstalling Process Guard
You will probably never need to do this. This should only be required if you run into any strange problems with Process Guard that doesn't allow you to boot into your operating system normally.
1) Reboot your operating system into SAFE-MODE. To do this Reboot your machine, and just after your BIOS screen disappears keep pressing the F8 key. A menu should appear, select "Safe Mode" and press Enter.
2) Run Process Guard's uninstall utility. You can see this from the Start Menu -> Process Guard -> Uninstall.
3) To verify the removal, make sure procguard.sys does not exist in (c:\windows\system32\drivers) directory, and that procguard.dll and pguard.dat are not in your system32 directory (c:\windows\system32). If they still exist delete them.
4) Reboot your machine and Process Guard should now be removed.
