AIM crash, can't open AIM, can't uninstall AIM

Post by Samuraifaith »

When I try to open or uninstall AIM, it says

"The procedure entry point AimIdleShutdown could not be located in the dynamic link library idlemon.dll."

And (only when I uninstall it) it says

"Could not load the DLL library C:\Programfiles\AIM\aimapi.dll. The specified procedure could not be found"

Then install AIM. Just run the installer right over whatever you have now.

Then, it should then let you uninstall. For cleanup purposes, completely uninstall AIM, then install again. Then install Middleman.

Ahh, I figured that out :) Thanks.

And if Middleman doesn't work? That was my third try, for some reason it won't work, my AIM always crashes.

I'll try again.

Ahh, it worked this time. Thanks.
