You can manually uninstall the game by removing the files and registry keys associated with it. Be sure to follow these steps exactly as they appear to prevent accidental file/program deletion on your system.

Why would you want to do this?
If you have tried everything to get your game working including:

-    Re-patched the game
-    Reinstalled the game completely
-    Un-installed the game completely and restarted
-    Restarted after each patch/booster installation/expansion installation
-    Downloaded a new patch from a different location
-    Posted your problem on bf2s or on another forum to ask for advice
-    Deleted all temporary files
-    You have used 'EA Downloader' to get and install patches


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Follow these steps carefully

To delete the save files:

1)    Open My Documents.
2)    Right-click on the Battlefield 2 folder and choose Delete.
3)   To delete the game files (in the default location):

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

To remove Battlefield 2

1)    Open My Computer.
2)    Open the 'C' drive. Or the drive where Battlefield 2 is installed
3)    Open the 'Program Files' folder. Or the folder where 'EA GAMES' is located
4)    Open the 'EA GAMES' folder. Or the folder where Battlefield 2 is located
5)    Right-click on the 'Battlefield 2' folder and choose Delete.

6)    Close all open windows.
7)    Right-click on the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.

2)    Click on 'Run'.
3)    Type regedit in the text field.
4)    Click File and then choose Export.

5)    Click Save; you will now be returned to the Registry Editor window.
