Sorry it this is in the wrong place. I’m a long-time subscriber, but new to the forum. At any rate here’s my question (actually two of them):
I have three versions of MyEclipse installed (8.5, 8.6, and 9.0). After installing 8.6 I wanted to uninstall 8.5. I haven’t found a way to do that except just deleting the files and directories. During the install, however, I noticed 8.6 and 8.5 share the same common directory. That stopped me in my tracks. Do I have to uninstall 8.6 and then try to figure out how to get 8.5 uninstalled?
Next question:
I wanted to give MyEclipse more memory to operate in. The docs on this only mention the command line options that can be used with Eclipse. Will the same options work for myeclipse.exe?
Thanks for putting up with me.

Good questions. If you have installed different versions of MyEclipse certain common files are copied to a common folder. Please do not remove this common folder as the other versions of ME profile would be referencing them.
Here are the ways you can un-install MyEclipse versions –
(a) If you have installed using all-in-one installer, check – Start > Programs > Pulse / MyEclipse > MyEclipse 8.5 and click on uninstall MyEclipse 8.5
(b) In case the above option is not available, you can remove the MyEclipse 8.5 folder from MyEclipse installation dir. Typically in a windows environment, if you have installed ME 8.5, the default path is C:\Program Files\Genuitec\Profiles\MyEclipse 8.5, remove the MyEclipse 8.5 folder and ensure you DO NOT remove this folder C:\Program Files\Genuitec\Common
(c) Open Pulse (Start > Programs > Pulse > Pulse Explorer or open C:\Program Files\Genuitec\Pulse Explorer\pulse-explorer.exe)
(i) Login to pulse, if you don’t have login, you can also login anonymously
(ii) Select “Eclipse – Galileo” realm from top left hand corner dropdown
(iii) Select “MyEclipse 8.5” profile from “My Profiles”. From the right hand pane, verify the path under About My Profile > “Installed At” . Right click on your ME 8.5 profile and click on Delete.
