I probably was. But I did run a system search for any files associated with the term "bridge commander" and deleted all I could find, that didn't fix anything, so I don't know what else I could've done.

Well, you know where you installed.
And not all files are "marked" as "bridge commander".
You have to go there yourself and see if there are any lingering files.
I still can't read peoples minds, nor can I read peoples computers, even worse, I can't combine the two to read what is going wrong with your BC install...

Not to poke my nose where it doesn't belong, but wouldn't he have deleted all of the BC files when he deleted the folder "Activision/Bridge Commander"? That,  I guess, is assuming that he searched for both files and folders

Here is what I suspected happend to him a couple of times now.

He uninstalled the game, which didn't remove the py files (among others) of the mods he was having a problem with.
Which, when he reinstalled at the same location, got "active" again and messed his game up, again.
