Default Re: uninstall a program

Hello!

It depends on the program. The only other way that I can think of is
possibly if the program has a file you can execute in their install folder
to uninstall. You can look in their folder for a Setup.exe and after
running it may give you an option to uninstall.

If the control panel can't find the uninstall, then it might be that someone
has manually deleted the directory already. You might want to check. If
that's the case then the best idea would be to reinstall the application
over top of itself, and then remove it.

Hope that helps!
