I uninstalled a program and he checks, he did... but... it is still there.   What should I do?   Thank you

Hi Fred1939,

1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

2. where were successfully able to uninstall the program?

3. it happens with all the uninstall programs or any specific program?

4. do you have security software installed on the computer?

If this happens with the specific program, to check on the seller's Web site if they have available uninstall programs and use.

You can manually uninstall the program in Add or remove programs focus on the bottom of the article for more information.

  • How can I uninstall a program that does not show in my add and remove program?

    I downloaded a program called Imesh is a file sharing program. Should have never downloaded it. I can not even find an uninstall icon to remove it. I looked in the folder program files and it didn't no Imesh folder.  When I click on the Start button and select programs.  I shows that the icon there but not uninstall icon.

    Can someone help me please? Would be very happy.

    Thank you

    You should never uninstall an application by going to C:\Program Files and simply delete the application folder.

    If there is no link "Uninstall" in the entry of the application in the start menu > all programs, you must uninstall it by going to control panel > Add / Remove programs.  Select the application and click the "Uninstall" button

    Sometimes, you must stop the application before you uninstall it.  This is the case with iMesh.  See--> http://support.imesh.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/28/0/uninstall--install

    Well that does not mention the body of your question by using the control panel > Add / Remove Programs, the subject line is.  So, if in fact you tried that method and iMesh is not listed there, then either

    Reinstall iMesh and see if it then appears in Control Panel > Add / Remove programs

    or

    Free download Revo Uninstaller.  Stop iMesh as described and then use Revo to uninstall.

  • Add or remove programs? Uninstall it says invalid or data has been corrupted, will not continue.

    Add or remove programs. The program I want to uninstall it is Printmaster 150.00 MB. I tried to uninstall it but uninstall it says invalid or data has been corrupted,

    will not continue. How to get out he computer?

    If you have the original installation media, a method that often works when an uninstall program is corrupt is to reinstall the app and then uninstall it.

    Otherwise, you could try free Revo Uninstaller or see http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/comphelp/msg081415488395.html (unfortunately, the link to the manual uninstall instructions doesn't work; support for Broderbund software has been adopted by Encore.com, the search engine it leaves something to be desired; however, you can ask for help in a forum yet http://forums.encoreusa.com/).

    The following (below the line *) comes from a post on the support forums forum moderator yet.  I have not linked to it because earlier in the post, it is suggested to use a registry cleaner in the manual uninstall.  Certainly, I do NOT recommend to use any registry cleaner.

    *************************************************************************************************************
    NOTE:
    this message does not apply to PrintMaster 2.0 or Print Shop 2.0.

    Broderbund programs, including (but not limited to) print shop, PrintMaster, designer of Scrapbook memories of creation and creator of calendar, are installed in the Program Files folder where most of the software are installed. However, many Broderbund programs will install also files and folders in other places on the hard drive.

    When one of these programs of Broderbund is uninstalled because it is suspected that the installation is corrupt, it's always a good idea to make sure to manually delete all the files and folders stored on the hard drive that are not deleted automatically during an uninstall normal - to ensure that all corruption is removed before the program, is reinstalled.

    Here are the paths of the additional folders where Broderbund software is commonly installed:

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    and

    C:\Documents and Settings\ [your user name] \Local Settings\Application Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    and

    C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund logiciels\Print.

    and

    C:\ProgramData\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    **********

    PrintMaster address books can be accessed from and saved to the BOOKS folder that is a subfolder of the folder prints shown below (PrintMaster address books may be accessed from or saved to the Documents folder)

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    WinVista/Win 7:Print and C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund logiciels\Print logiciels\ C:\ProgramData\Broderbund

    (As you can see, when PrintMaster address books are registered under WinVista and Windows 7, they are saved in two files).

    For example, the address for PrintMaster 18 books would be saved in these folders on WinVista or Windows7 computer

    C:\ProgramData\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

    C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

    To make sure that saved the address books are not deleted during the uninstall process, they must be saved prior to PrintMaster is uninstalled. When these address books are restored, it will be necessary to restore these in the same two folders address books - because an address book will not appear in the file. Open list, if not in the two files.

    Address books print shop can easily be stored in the Documents folder. So, if you have registered your address books in the Documents folder, it is not necessary to save the address book before you uninstall the print shop.

    **********

    Files that control the Project Gallery and the Art Gallery are stored in the folders of ART PROJECTS & which are subfolders of this folder to print

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\ [your username] \Local Data\Broderbund logiciels\Print

    WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund logiciels\Print.

    For example, ART & for PrintMaster 18 PROJECT files would be in this folder on WinVista or Windows7 computer

    C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\PROJECTS

    Because these files can easily become corrupt if the video card driver is out of date or corrupted, the program folder that has been uninstalled (in this case, the folder 18.0) must be removed before the program is re-installed. It is completely safe to delete the folder PrintMaster - because a new facility this 18.0 folder will be performed when PrintMaster is uninstalled.

    If there is only one version of PrintMaster installed on the computer, the PrintMaster folder in this example could also be deleted safely.

    **********

    It is not absolutely necessary to remove the Adbook.exe file that controls the program PrintMaster addressbook. But it's always a good idea to know that this file is installed in this folder

    C:\Program Files\Fichiers Files\Broderbund\UMM

  • I can not manually remove a particular program to add tool / remove programs.

    I use XP Pro . Pack 3.

    All, but I can't manually remove a particular program from the add tool / remove programs. The program is "Ulead VideoStudio 8.0"

    The registry of the program given below entry between the quotation marks. I ran Microsoft FixIt (diagnose and correct program installation and uninstallation problems automatically) and she confirmed she fixed the error with success, but as I retried to remove said adding tool program / remove programs, it still reflects the same as we. The problem by deleting this program remained pending.

    SYMPTOM:

    I TRY TO REMOVE THE PROGRAM FROM THE ADD REMOVE PROGRAMS TOOL,-instead of OPEN the "UNINSTALL PROGRAM", SETUP PROGRAM OPENS RATHER AND ALSO request THAT THE registration KEY into the HOUSE.

    AS I ENTER THE KEY of RECORD, THE PROGRAM CONTINUE to INSTALL , BUT ends UP WITH a BOX of DIALOGUE of MESSAGE LIKE "'THE PROGRAM IS ALREADY INSTALLED IN MY COMPUTER:" "

    SO I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE LEFT BUT TO STOP THE INSTALLATION (IT IS NOT AN UNINSTALL PROGRAM) WITH THE REST OF THE PROBLEM UNRESOLVED.

    NOW WHAT CAN I DO ELSE?

    Thank you & best regards

    Hi DadVQ,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    This problem occurs because of a missing or corrupted Rundll32.exe file. This problem can also be caused by a virus.

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: Follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if the problem still persists.

    Cannot find the Rundll32.exe file when you open Control Panel

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/812340

     

    Method 2: If the problem persists, I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: While hard disk analysis if bad sectors are found when scanning try to repair this area, all available on which data can be lost.
