RE: Using 'Run" feature

Best thing to do is to visit the website of the program you want to get rid
of, and search for "manual uninstall". If there's a way to get rid of it,
they should have it on the website -- otherwise you can contact their tech
support.

Best Wishes,

The ccleaner is a dandy little tool but it didn't fix the problem.
Thanks for your help.

No, that wasn't it -- whatever it was the tech talked me through before it
led me directly to a brach of files names which I could check or uncheck -
once unchecked it was deleted.

It wasn't writing a Cmd.
Let me go back to the link and read up on that.
I thought I had the correct path from a former seacrh I did when my computer
could FIND the program - it seems it took it partially off - but I cannot
install a newer version until I get the old version off completely. Thank
you again.

Still got running water and lights in Russia I hope.

GREAT ANSWER and even more important Thank You for the link -- it's like
following breadcrumbs but the knowledge does accumulate. Thanks again.
Thankfuly this is nothing earth shattering but it does does put a fire under
me to seek the 'know how'. I'll keep you posted.

If the economy of The Soviet Union collapses overnight -- it wasn't me!

How do you use the 'Run' feature in the START menu in order to remove a
program that does NOT show up in the ADD/REMOVE list on the Control Panel. I
think I did it once long ago but have forgotten the procedure. Can anyone
help? Thanks

Hi,
Do you mean the Del command?.
If so, try this:
You need to know the exact path of the application and write it down to
enter it in the Del command.
Open a run command and type in:
CMD.exe click [OK]
there on the command prompt type:
del c:\application
or del C:\Program Files\the application here

Del (erase)

Let us know.
