It is certain that the files and folder for "The Shield Deluxe 2008" are now gone.
There is still an "orphaned" entry for the Service which we will remove here.

Do you use the CD R/W types to store information? These are the ones you have to format first, and can be erased and re-used.
If you don't, and you just use CD-R types like I do (burn once only), then we will remove the InCD Service.
You can still format the CD-RW types from Start, Programs.
InCD has been buggy.
