How To Remove "Nero Scout" From My Computer

Nero Scout

This does not get rid of the tray icon. This only gets rid of the icon in My Computer. You should be able to right-click on the tray icon and disable that version of scout from there.

Click Start > Run, and type:

Code:

regsvr32 /u "%commonprogramfiles%\Ahead\Lib\MediaLibraryNSE.dll"

To undo (put it back) :

Code:

regsvr32 "%commonprogramfiles%\Ahead\Lib\MediaLibraryNSE.dll"

This will not cause any harm.

This is tested in Windows XP AND Windows Vista (RTM) with Nero 7, 7.5, and 7.8.

Nero Search

Something new and annoying in Nero is Nero Search.
To remove that:

Click Start > Run, and type:

Code:

Cmd.exe /c regsvr32 /u /s "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Ahead\Lib\NeroSearch.dll" && regsvr32 /u /s "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Ahead\Lib\NeroSearchBar.dll" && regsvr32 /u /s "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Ahead\Lib\NeroSearchTray.dll"

Tested in Windows XP with Nero 7.8.
