woah - yes, a lot of unpinning going on. perhaps a bit too much even - I see nothing wrong with the three patchers being pinned in the Thief General subforum (basically, what you want to avoid is (
https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=117175) stuff from 2007 being pinned, and having 10+ pins per subforum. four up to date pins are perfectly fine).

Windows 10. Thief install has always frozen about 10 seconds into game. I thought I'd uninstall everything and give it another shot with a fresh install using TFix 1.27. The problem is I don't see how to uninstall. It's in Acer(C):>Games>Thief2, but when I go into Uninstall programs, it's not there in the list. How can I uninstall?

Just delete the install folder.

That crossed my mind, but I feel better about it now that you've said it Unna...

aw.. no longer stuck? I guess because there is something better now?
Apologies. The one in ThiefGen was linked to or a copy of this one and for some reason I wasn't able to unstick the ThiefGen one without unsticking this one. Al_B sorted it out. It should still be stickied in this forum and I'll try and do that without the ThiefGen one reappearing. If not, I'll yell for Al again.
Edit. Seems to have worked.

Just finished "Running Interference" on this comp. First time it ever didn't seize up like a rusty wheel. Played a short FM through FM Selector for good measure.
Now I just hope for the best doing a second install for Dromeding.

I had already done a second install before reading that. I use TFix1.27 for both Dromed install and FM playing install. I put FM playing install in C:\Thief 2 The Metal Age, and I put the Dromed install in C:\Games\Thief 2 The Metal Age. I did this for both my windows 7 and windows 10 machines. What should I remove from the Dromed installs before using BulletDromed, specifically?

You mean T2fix. Did you apply custom resources as you installed T2fix? Get rid of it. For DromEd, you want a clean install. Did you install DromEd with T2fix? Then you have the choice
1. Install DromEd Toolkit only
2. Install Bullet DromEd
If you are not sure, then install the bullet version, it has everything you need for a basic working installation. But download DromEd toolkit, too and keep it on your HDD. It has advanced tools which are not included in Bullet (schemas, tools, dlls for. etc).
