Add/Remove Program

Posted: 06-26-2008, 04:41 AM
I've been trying to remove ErrorSmart from my computer. It's not the complete
program, just a scan so it does not offer its own uninstall option.

Windows said it was preparing to uninstall then I get the message:

The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation.
Then, You do not have sufficient access to uninstall ErrorSmart. Please
contact your system administrator.

Last time I checked, I was the system administrator of my laptop. I'm the
one that downloaded it, so how do I remove it?
