Hi,

> Do you lose everything on your computer when you do this?

Well... even when uninstalling FB you loose nothing important at all. You
databases are kept untouched as much as will also your conf files
(firebird.conf, alias.conf), your security db (security*.fdb), your custom
UDFs.. and even your firebird.log.

Of course, if the only thing you need is to get way with fb control panel
applet issue, then going the steps Helen have said is a lot less overhead
and, again, NO you do NOT loose anything.

Anderson Farias
