the directories C:\Program Files\Nemesys or C:\Program Files\Tascam will be removed during the
uninstall process and you will lose all of the data in those directories.

Be sure that you back up any performance files (.GSP), articulation files (.ART), and instruments
(.GIG) before proceeding with the uninstall.

You will still be able to use any of these with GigaStudio 4.

Check for these file types visually with the Windows file explorer, or using the Windows search tool.

To uninstall your previous GigaStudio installation:

1.

Click the Windows Start button.

2.

Go to the Control Panel item on your Start Menu. Double-click the Add or Remove Programs option
in the list.

3.

In the installed programs list, locate and click on the Tascam GigaStudio item.

4.

Click the Change/Remove button to remove the previous version of GigaStudio.


Windows will ask you if you want to continue with the removal of the previous version of GigaStudio. When
the removal process is complete, you will be prompted to restart the computer. At this point you may want to
save any open files and close any open programs. If you just want to keep working and install GigaStudio 4
later, you can choose not to restart at this time.

Once the computer has restarted, you have successfully uninstalled your previous version of GigaStudio.
