Re: [Evolution] Evolution for Windows won't start. Ancient version error.

Hello, 

To clear your old evolution data, go to your home directory (C:
\Documents and Settings\<your_user_name>) and delete the subdirectories
".evolution" and ".gconf". This should work. If not, delete ".gconfd"
and ".gnome2*"

Cheers

Fridrich
