A. From the Start menu, select Settings Control Panel (or just Control Panel in Windows XP), then select Add/Remove Programs. Scroll down to the entry for the Premium Solver product you installed, click Change/Remove, and follow the prompts. You can also re-run the Setup program (PSPSetup.exe, PSSetup.exe, etc.) and select “Uninstall” from the menu. Q. I installed an old version of the Premium Solver (V3.5 or earlier), the 15-day evaluation license expired, the product isn’t listed in Add/Remove Programs, and I lost my copy of the Setup program (EvalPlus.exe). Is there anything I can do to get back the standard Excel Solver? A. Carefully do this: Go to the directory (on most PCs) C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Library\Solver (use Office10 for Excel XP). There should be files solver.xlo and solver32.dlo in this directory. Delete all the other files in this directory. Then rename solver.xlo to solver.xla, and rename solver32.dlo to solver32.dll.
