Is there a way to uninstall a program that will not uninstall via the
control panel? I am using Vista Home Premium on a 3 GB Ram, Quad Core 2.2
Ghz machine.

I can certainly remove all the folders under the application, but is there
an easy way to clean out the registry?

I've been using Uninstaller Pro for years and it really does a great job of
cleaning up installed software as well as failed and partially
installed/uninstalled software. Here's a link to a fully functional
evaluation download of the software.

Hello,

The best solution for me is uninstall all folders in default mode, then
use CCleaner to clean the windows installation menu and clean the bad
keys in the registry too.

Good luck.
