| 1301392 | 2012-09-16 22:59:00 | Sometimes my 'fiddling' gets me into trouble:crying Last night I inadvertantly installed a programme I don't want on my 'puter. When I try to uninstall it through 'Add/remove programs' I get this message: 'Please wait until the current program is finished uninstalling or being changed' and I can't continue. Can someone point in the right direction to 'fix' this please? TIA as always. :) |

| 1301394 | 2012-09-16 23:29:00 | I had a similar problem yesterday trying to get rid of babylon. I also got the 'please wait till program has finished uninstalling' message. I did a reboot and tried again. Babylon is now gone. | Bobh (5192) | ||
| 1301395 | 2012-09-17 00:57:00 | Mmm - done that twice, doesn't work. :( | R.M. (561) | ||

| 1301398 | 2012-09-17 06:18:00 | CTrl alt delete open task manager and stop any tasks associated with that program No - that didn't fix it either. The programme was 'MP3Tags' I think. The Company is called NCH, which threw about three other programmes/toolbars and rubbish onto my 'puter. :( |

| 1301399 | 2012-09-17 06:34:00 | try booting into safe mode and uninstalling it from there. Sometimes that will do the trick. | Nick G (16709) | ||
| 1301400 | 2012-09-17 06:43:00 | Not to be glib, but search for "NCH uninstall" without the quotes in Google. There's plenty of advice. | kingdragonfly (309) | ||
| 1301401 | 2012-09-17 08:38:00 | Mmmm - I don't think it is as simple as that. It manages to obstruct most of my efforts to remove it. Revo Unistall won't do it... And comment online isn't great either. :( And I do know I'm not thinking all that great at the moment (life's events and such). But... I've been round the traps with this one. |
