I attempted to install a course that did not install correctly. Caddy says it is installed but is not in the list and TW08 fails to see it. The course is "Kapalua Plantation"

How do I un-install this course manually so I can re-install?

Hi...

When you are using vista or Win7 :

When you installed TWCaddie08 you will have to make sure the program has administrator previleges.
( When you don t do that you will receive message that TW08 game is not installed correct. )

( right click TWCaddie.exe file and install as administrator....also turn off UAC, user account control in win7 or Vista )

Some more help below, it is for Vista, but about same for Win7:

The program needs to have permission from the first time you install it. UAC Creates registery entries for each individual user and denies access to the keys Tiger Woods 08 uses to read courses from.

Simply put here is how to fix every single issue that Vista users have encountered. MAKE SURE THE PROGRAM HAS ADMINISTRATION PRIVILEGES.

So how do you do that you ask?

Browse to the folder you installed TW Caddie 08 usally:
C://Program Files/CourseDownloads.com/TW Caddie 08

Locate the following file:
TW Caddie 08.exe

(VISTA 64 BETA)
TW Caddie 08 Vista 64.exe

Right Click on that file and select Properties.

With properties Open select the tab labeled Compatibility

In the Compatibility screen you will see a option near the bottom that says:
Run This Program as Administrator

Check the box and click Apply and then OK. As the manual says you the program MUST BE RAN AS AN ADMINISTER. IN XP just being logged in as an Admin is enough. Vista and win7 on the other hand you have to tell it to run as an Administer.

This has fixed 99.9% of all reported problems with TW Caddie and Vista or win7.

Thanks for the reply Gunpower61.

Solved :-(;

In my haste I failed to note the correct name Plantation Course Kapalua 2008.
I was looking for Kapalua and failed to scroll down enough.

All is well, my play excepted (;Loads of practice needed).

Course Downloads is the greatest. Thanks for this wonderful resource!
