Programs & features - uninstall

I'm trying to uninstall AVG, but when I select the program and then click "Uninstall/change", there is no activity.  "If I shut off programs & features and then reopen it to try again, I get the following message: Please wait until that the current program is finished uninstalling or change. I left the computer for anywhere from a few minutes to an hour and no activity appeared at all in my absence.  I close the programs & features, restart and can then access P & F once again, to repeat this scenario over and over again.

Before that, I had a couple of programs that wouldn't uninstall using P & F, and so I installed Revo Uninstaller - that worked. However, in Revo, AVG even was not in the lists to select for uninstalling programs. Then, I started P & F. After my first try to uninstall AVG via P & F, I thought that perhaps Revo has been the cause of the problem, so I uninstalled via P & F - successfully. But that has not solved the issue of trying to uninstall AVG.

Note: I have uninstall using Revo, a "search for AVG" something... (don't remember the actual name), because it was listed. Perhaps, I would not do that first.

Help?

  • I'm trying to uninstall a program and uninstall feature disappeared

    Under control panel, programs & features, it has no option to select ' Uninstall/Change/repair.  I have not had any problems before with the help of this feature.     I've done some uninstalling programs a few weeks ago.    Is it possible that I can have uninstalled the program "uninstall" in error?   Or y at - it such a program?   If there is and that's what's happened, can I get back by returning to the system restore using the date of my possible error?    If this isn't the case, any suggestions on how I fix this?  At this stage I can't remove all the programs.

    Thanks again for your response.   After trying your suggestion and go through the process twice and then give up, this afternoon my function is back on.   I now have my uninstall/change/repair under my programs and features.    It seems to work again.    I really appreciate your help.

  • I have relatively few programs in Add and remove programs feature xps document writer, and many things are not

    I can't find the xps Viewer or an xps printer to add and remove programs and do a right click Delete says access denied when I try to remove it features and the location of the printer.  It seems that other things are missing in Add and remove programs feature tool - is there a way to repopulate it? And I tried to get a certificate for the xps printer and Viewer by following the steps, but access is denied / I had to have my computer dehacked and I think that the hacker used this device to access my documents, I just want to eradicate it from my computer. Where to go to in the pc to do this? Is there a microsoft site that would download a new one and replace it? I know it is recommended to use the Add - Remove the tool but I can't when the item is not listed. It's a 64 bit Dell Inspiron 1545 Again-I need to find where I can delete the thing. Any new idea on how I could get permissions greeted = I opened the xps document, but it won't let me follow the steps to get the permissions - a sort of certificate. The thing also has a list of drivers and a port of xps and pilot xps I saw only once and could not remove - he said that it was in use? What is the name of the xps driver in Device Manager? I don't see listed xps driver. I think that the best thing would be to delete this device and all it's components of my computer. It is the misfortune.

    It is clear from the description that you want to close all programs to uninstall end

    First of all the notes that you should not close all programs, because many of them are programs of the system and their closure will result in the failure of the system
