Uninstalling Mouse Without Borders
This update is to add information should you wish to uninstall Mouse Without Borders. You can uninstall Mouse Without Borders as you would any other program through Control Panel. However, if you cannot locate it, that is because you are looking in the wrong place! Scroll further down further and you will find it under Windows Garage.In the event you are still having problems removing it, run the following command as an Admin:
msiexec /uninstall {D3BC954F-D661-474C-B367-30EB6E56542E}
I recommend exiting the program prior to uninstalling.

Mouse without Borders
How do you remove it?
You can uninstall Mouse Without Borders as you would any other program through Control Panel.
In the event that does not work, run the following command as an Admin:
msiexec /uninstall {D3BC954F-D661-474C-B367-30EB6E56542E}
I would recommend disabling it prior to uninstalling.
Mouse w/o Borders does not appear anywhere to uninstall.
I stopped it in Msconfig.
I did not uninstall it..cannot.
Not appear anywhere to uninstall.
I stopped in in msconfig.
Forgot...that worked..As I said, I disabled it in msconfig.
THANKS.
I am able to remove MWB just fine, but the reason that I'm doing it is so I can reinstall and go through the wizard again, unfortunately when I reinstall it it picks up the settings from the previous setup.
See if this works:
First, exit Mouse Without Borders. Then run the following command, as Admin:
msiexec /uninstall {D3BC954F-D661-474C-B367-30EB6E56542E}
Restart the computer and reinstall.
it will not uninstall either through Control Panel or running the command script as admin....what next?
Hi, Dave.
I found a suggestion posted by someone at the support site that may work for you:
1. Shut down desktop
2. Start up laptop, stop the service MWB
3. Uninstall MWB from Laptop
4. Start up desktop, stop the MWB service
5. Uninstall MWB from desktop
If you are still unsuccessful, I suggest you seek assistance from the Mouse without Borders Customer Community.
This will not install on a Win7 64 bit machine with SP1 and leaves no logs in event viewer. Setup is standard with no AV.
Any suggestions?
A computer that has MWB on it (WinXP SP3) is no longer hooked up to our network and now it does not respond to a regular USB keyboard or mouse. Is there any way, through setup or boot options, to get to a place where I can uninstall it and use this computer again? I'm going to try an ubuntu rescue CD, I guess, unless there is some easier way. Thanks for any info!
Ok, it works fine, but is here a way todisable it at startup? I tried via msconfig but it won't apear anywhere..
Sorry, Chris, no suggestions other than you should be running an antivirus program.
Hi,Hoyameb. You may want to try a different keyboard or USB port. You may have success in Safe Mode, running the following command, as Admin: msiexec /uninstall {D3BC954F-D661-474C-B367-30EB6E56542E}
Anonymous, with WinPatrol, you could add it to delayed start. Instructions here: Delayed Start
Big problem... Mouse without Borders Service stops. If I restart the service, it stops again after a second or so.
Something is preventing the Service from staying loaded and running.
Any ideas???
Thanks!

For those of you seeking a solution for failed installation... using `msiexec /i [msi file] /l* logfile.out`, it's clear that the firewall service must be started in order to perform the installation.
