I deactivated the nodeacces module, then uninstalled it. Then I removed it from my sites/all/modules folder.

Yet nodeaccess is still listed under available modules. And even though nodeaccess is not checked and not activated, if I create a new node it is invisible to anonymous users.

How do I get rid of nodeaccess?

also: if I create a new node, activate nodeaccess, deactivate nodeaccess, then uninstall it, my new node is visible to anonymous users.

sounds like you've done it wrong, use the devel module to debug who has nodeaccess to what, you may find something else going on.

If any Windows error you can try to clean your registry.
the majority of computer problems are related to the registry. When it gets filled with corrupt files and errors,

I'm seeing this as well, on a Drupal 5.19 installation.

After deactivating the nodeaccess module, anonymous users viewing newly created Page nodes get "Access Denied" errors. Permissions are fine (anonymous has view perm on node content) and there are no other access restrictions in place.

Am going to try the devel module next.

Unlike the original poster, I was able to remove nodeaccess from my module list properly.

However, newly created nodes are *not* visible by the anonymous user. The anonymous user has the "access content" permission. But according to the devel module:

username view update delete
admin yes yes yes
Anonymous no no no

and no other info is posted by devel beneath this header:

node realm gid view update delete explained

(checked the page source to make sure it wasn't being CSS-styled out of existence. There is just nothing there).

If we re-enable nodeaccess then we can create accessible pages once again.

This is a production site & therefore "most uncool" behavior.

Update:

Rebuilding the drupal node access permissions seems to have done the trick. Something that you might want to mention in the uninstallation of the nodeaccess module.
