Im about to pull my hair out. I have removed profit from my UI folder, I have deleted and uninstalled the updater and I have deleted my EQ ini files but this UI will not go away. Please help me get rid of this craptastic AI so I can play the game again. I have Vista 64

If you have removed the profitui directory and the eq2.ini file it will be gone. If it is not you probably have multiple installs of eq2 and are trying to clean out the wrong one. That might also be why you are having a poor user experience with the ui, you are not updating the install of eq2 that you are playing.

Was gonna quote Silat on this but decided to post something different.

Type /loadui in game and select default. There you should now have a new eq2.ini file with Default being the UI you see

Logged into game and selected default ui and made it the default. Logged back in and its still on profit. Any other options?

I cant find any trace of profit or another instance of EQ2 on my computer anywhere and Im at the end of my rope. THanks much for the quick responses.

I believe that Eq2 will rebuild the entire UI folder if you delete/rename it.

If that doesn;t work then what you are telling us is not what is actually happening.

Ok.... Step by step...

Had EQ2 for a month and zero custom UI.

Heard about Profit today and downloaded the auto updater for profit.

I dont like it.

Go to Computer > Sony > EQ2 > UI ..... Remove profit folder

Go to Control Panel > Programs > Add / Remove program / Delete Profit UI Reborn Updater.

Go to Computer > Sony > EQ2 > Show hidden files > Delete EQ2.ini file.

Edit : Upon further investigation it appears that this Profit UI only shows up when using the EQ2 icon or the Station Launcher. If I launch the game with the EQ2 map button, this problem doesnt exsist and doing /loadui doesnt even show Profit being installed. So WTF do I do ?

Restart computer

Boot up EQ2.. Profit is still here.

/loadui Set to default . Doesnt revert.

Log back out, restart computer. Launch EQ2 . Profit still loads.

I dont know what Im missing, and this is exactly what I have done.
