Re: Uninstall Problem

While trying to uninstall Farstone VirtualDrive Utility & Burning Suite my PC froze - I have it nearly 2 hours before switching it off.

The problem is that it is still in Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and is still showing in Device Manager. When I try to remove it in Control Panel, I get a message that it is unable to be removed! Tried same in safe mode - same result! Tried uninstalling it from Device Manager, seems to work but reappears when I reboot. Used TweakUI to remove Drive from list but the program remains in Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel.

Can anyone advise me how to remove this program?



Contact the program vendor's tech support for information on how to remove it.
