| 422714 | 2006-01-20 02:33:00 | Either way should be fine stingray68. Have you run into a problem? I find it useful to do a restart after removing a program , just to clean things up a bit |

| 422715 | 2006-01-20 02:41:00 | My understanding that it's best to use the software's manufacturer's unistall if possible, in other words your first example. Generally uninstalling is a safe operation, but it's a good reason to do a quick backup of important files, just in case. |

| 422716 | 2006-01-20 02:45:00 | if a programme is studdorn that mop it up by deleting the folder in your "program files" folder and then google for and download regseeker and run a clean. | apparition (3207) | ||
| 422717 | 2006-01-20 03:00:00 | Or use ccleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com) . It'll do the same thing free. And if u cant remove the program thru add/remove, ccleaner might work. Then u can delete the folder/s once the program is uninstalled, and fix it with ccleaner after. |

| 422718 | 2006-01-20 03:07:00 | yes ccleaner does a similar job but I use regseeker (www.snapfiles.com) because (also free) you don't install it. Just unzip and run the exe file and it supports cleaning, searching with multiple results and it's own version of add/remove programmes. I keep it on my iPod for use at work. |

| 422719 | 2006-01-20 04:19:00 | Download JV16 Powertools.www.321download.com This is the best ever free registry cleaner of all time. It will find obsolete entrys in your registry that all the others leave behind. Its not very easy to use at first and it is very powerful. Be careful. If you need help just ask. Ian |
