Pavilion dv2 Notebook: how to uninstall items in "All programs" which are not displayed via programs and features

I do not play games on my computer. I uninstalled 'My HP Games' (32 items) via the control panel. However, there are 11 items that appear in the games through "All programs", but are not displayed by the intermediary of "Control Panel / programs and features. There is also a link to eBay.com, in "All programs" that I would like to delete.

How to uninstall these components?

Hi @jarhtmd,

Thank you for your response.

The sample you provided it seems there are some games that you should be able to uninstall in Add Remove programs.

For example, 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Chess'. When you look in the programs listed do you see "Microsoft Games\Chess, if so you should be able to uninstall."  It would be listed under Microsoft Games / and the name of the game.

As some of the Microsoft games that came with the Windows installation you can not have an option to uninstall them.

Those ending with "lnk" is just links. Try right click and delete.

Good luck!

    I use InDesign 2015.2 on Windows 7.  I'm working on a document and you want to use a family of fonts installed on my computer.  Not all fonts display correctly in the window however.  When I select some fonts to a paragraph style, they appear as symbols and glyphs.  These fonts appear in the drop-down type (and an example of the face appears in the drop-down list).  They work very well in other applications Adobe, such as Illustrator.  No idea why I can't get to work in InDesign?  TIA!

  • How to uninstall Adobe CS6 Design Standard of my machine? Program is not listed in "programs and features".

    I have Adobe CS6 Design Standard installed on my machine and now I have a new machine that I need to put this. I'm trying to uninstall it from my old machine because I need to have the 'licence' is available. However, the adobe programs do not appear in my dialog uninstall Windows 7.  I guess that I uninstalled something on an (Adobe Application Manager?) accident that causes this problem.

    I have the physical disk for the standard of the CS6. Please I need help understanding how to uninstall programs... I can always use them and they are simply the icons on my desktop, but do not appear in my dialog "programs and features".

    I appreciate all help you provide.

    for the available license you just need to 'turn off' on one of your two active facilities.  That is to say, open an adobe program and click Help > deactivate.

    now, if you want to uninstall (and there is no reason to leave installed a permanently disabled softwarwe), reinstall (to install the uninstall program), and then use the uninstall program.

  • How to uninstall Acrobat (test that I decided to not sign for) so that Adobe Reader will work properly

    I signed up for a free 30 day trial of Adobe Acrobat.  After that I decided not to go forward, I learned that Adobe had automatically changed all my default settings for PDF for Adobe Reader of Adobe Acrobat.  Now that the trial is over, whenever I have download a PDF doc, it is automatically registered as an Adobe Acrobat - so I can not open in Adobe Reader.  Do I need to uninstall the Acrobat from Adobe from my system (blocked software given the test is completed)?  Will be present-installing, this may affect any other aspect of my PDF docs or Adobe Reader recorded?   Would appreciate your help.  Kathie

    Control Panel > programs and features, select Acrobat and uninstall. After the uninstall, that it might be good to run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html and remove anything to the left of the Acrobat folder. You will need to reinstall, or at least repair, drive.
