Okay well I am not the best computer guy, but let me try to offer some assistance.

1. Are you an Administrator for your account?
2. What Operating System are you running? (Windows XP, Vista XP 64bit etc)
3. Have you "Uninstalled the programs? (you do this in the Control panel, start button, control panel, add remove programs and then scroll down till you find ThorUI and EQ2Maps). This "SHOULD" delete the directories as well but if it doesn't read on.

So lets go on the little I know about your system, it seems as if you do not have administrator rights (which btw is a good thing). You will need to log in with an account with Admin Rights and find the directory where thorui and maps are located. (something like d:\thorui) you can access your directory tree by typing the Windows Start Key on your keyboard and the "E" key this will open windows Explorer (not internet explorer).

Okay so lets say you found the directory (left side of the win explorer) right click on it and go to properties. Make sure you have no boxes clicked (there will be a few of them. Things like Read Only, Archive, Compress etc).

Now if you are an Administrator you should be able to with thorui directory (again left side) right click and scroll down to "Delete" however, lets say that does not work. You might have to individually delete all the files (right side this time).


No guarantee's this will work but its worth a try.
