I need help uninstalling ALL Nascar Heat MODS, TRACKS. ETC and the SAKE Mod Launcher . I've searched for a guide and unable to find one. I'm currently on Win 7 32bit.
The reason for this is because I'm having problems installing. I don't know if I'm missing something but I can't get COT or G2 to install properly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Uninstalling NHeat mods would be quite simple... just delete the mod folders  ah - wait ! You mentioned you're running Win7 ?! That case you'll first have to set Explorer to show hidden files and folders. Then check for a folder c:\users\[your username]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program files\Hasbro Interactive\... There's another Heat install to be found there, and that's a copy of the one in c:\Program Files\Hasbro Interactive\.... and that one has all user-related stuff like options.cfg. Any setting you make in the game, Win7 will only apply to the copy in VirtualStore - and that's maybe where your problem with COT G2 is |

Cholerix: That fixed the problem. Thanks for the help! I was unaware of the "c:\users\[your username]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program files\Hasbro Interactive" location. As soon as deleted the Hasboro file and then reinstalled the game worked perfectly.
Bmxtwins: Thanks for the help. I'm running just a 32bit version of windows 7. I only have a "Program Files" location and not a "Program Filesx86" I believe that there is a "Program Filesx86" only if you have a 64bit version of windows 7.
Again thank you both for the help!!!

Thanks again but now I've got a new problem. I installed Heat Essentials, Mod Launcher(S.A.K.E), Plat G2 and all the SP & NW tracks and the game worked fine. I ran several races with no problems.
I then downloaded and installed 2010 Nationwide COT addon from Mod Squad. I attempted to change to that series by using Mod Launcher then Utilities -> Swap Utilities -> Carset Swapper but nothing happens. I then tried to run G2 again and in the game it says that NW series has been sucessfully added and it states to use Mod Launcher as stated above to play NW version. I went through the process again and same results, nothing happens when I click on Carset Swapper. I even tried to run Mod Launcher as Admin but that doesn't even give me the option to launch G2.
ANY IDEAS ANYONE??? Thanks in advance!!!!!

You've perhaps just again run into that VirtualStore folder problem...
Everything a user changes on a program - and swapping drivers.txt or something alike is such a change - would only happen to VirtualStore copy of the program folder... while ML2 would most likely only look for the original install
Frequently deleting the whole Hasbro Interactive folder in VirtualStore might be th eonly way to fix that problem. Unless someone tries making ML2 more Vista/Win7 compatible

What Raybee recommended will work perfectly...
But as an alternative you can run the Mod Launcher as an Administrator every time. (Right Click)
You may also need to delete that VirtualStore Heat folder again.
