How do I uninstall JVCL?

I want to uninstall Jedi because it replaces my GIF handling library. Even though I uninstalled JVCL, Delphi keeps using the Jedi gif library and it keeps adding the JVGif unit to my project which adds extra compiling time.

There is no automatic way to nicely uninstall Jedi.

To uninstall Jedi and restore the functionality of previous GIF library do this:

  1. Close Delphi
  2. Run the JCL uninstaller
  3. Run the JVCL uninstaller
  4. Run the cleaning utility as explained by Mason Wheeler (in both folders)
  5. Manually delete JCL folders
  6. Manually delete JVCL folders
  7. Start Delphi. Reinstall TGifImage component

Note: To start the uninstallers run the "install.bat".

Run the JVCL installer and uninstall. Then open the JVCL root folder in the command line and type "clean.bat all" and that should take care of the rest of it.
