Saturday, July 7, 2012 by sublime20 | Discussion: Stardock Support General
i have a serious issue...... gamestop impulse latest update basically left all of my software non uninstallable... gamestop's current client doesnt even include "my software" tab anymore and i cannot see my object desktop software let alone uninstall/reinstall my software ...... and i tried uninstalling all of my OD software through the windows program and software removal and it doesnt do anything..........
what do i do?? i cannot seem to find out how to access my stuff at all.....

I would say find an older version of Impulse, install it, uninstall all of your Object desktop software and reinstall them through the SDC software or download from the store.
You can find an older version here: http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Impulse-Download-102198.html
But as stated, install it while you are offline and then uninstall all of the OD software.

It was only a matter of time before this happened.
Impulse was supposed to be used to uninstalll everything, then reinstalled through the store or the new SDC. Numerous posts have been made concerning this. If that is now not possible, I think you'll need to contact support on this one.
It may be possible to use a recent restore point to go back before the Gamestop update, run Impulse while offline and uninstall everything.
Good luck.
Edit: If you follow Frankief's advice, make sure you run Impulse offline or it will autoupdate you right back where you started.
