Question I Need Help I Keep Getting Uninstall Errors

Hi,

There are apps that I can't uninstall: I run parameter/system/remove programs and I get an error like "This app could not be completly removed. Do you want to remove it from the installed program?"

I hit Yes, but still it does not remove it from the list.

Any ideas?

Re: I Need Help I Keep Getting Uninstall Errors

Use SKTools or MemMaid -- they are excellent at getting rid of bits and pieces left behind by incomplete uninstalls.

Re: I Need Help I Keep Getting Uninstall Errors

I've just encountered the same error today. I tried to uninstall mobilematts6.0; several different clocks (that same glass clock). I tried using the memmaid but wasn't able to find anything to help remove the bad uninstalls. I tried that option and it didn't find anything.

Did anyone find an answer

Re: I Need Help I Keep Getting Uninstall Errors

Try to disable all today plugins first,than uninstall.If it doesnt help,u gonna need to end .exe processes(like biotouch.exe) using a task manager(like dot fred or something).

I'll check out dotfred. I did turn off TF3D from the today plugin. I also tried re-installing some of those apps that won't uninstall right thinking that it would correct the issue. Guess, what it didn't work.

Thanks

What type of processes should i look for. Stopped the biotouch.exe and then tried to uninstall but still got the same errors
