  2. Deleting an uninstalled software

    Hello,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    First, I would suggest you to contact Python if they have any uninstaller, if yes, run the uninstaller package to get all the remnants of python removed completely from your computer.

    If that does not help you may edit the registry and remove all the values for python. Follow the steps below to do so:

    Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added
    protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge
    Base:

    322756 How to back up and restore the registry in Windows

    • Click Start, and then click Run.
    • In the Open box, type regedt32, and then click
      OK.
    • In Registry Editor, locate the following registry key:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
    • In the left pane, click the Uninstall registry key, and then click
      Export on the File menu.
    • In the Export Registry File dialog box that appears, click
      Desktop in the Save in list, type uninstall in the
      File name box, and then click Save.
    • Each key listed under Uninstall in the left pane of Registry Editor represents a program that is displayed in the
      Currently installed programs list of the Add or Remove Programs tool. To determine which program that each key represents, click the key, and then view the following values in the details pane on the right:
      DisplayName: The value data for the DisplayName key is the name that is listed in Add or Remove Programs.

      -and-

      UninstallString: The value data for the UninstallString key is the program that is used to uninstall the program.
    • After you identify the registry key that represents the program that you removed but which is still displayed in the
      Currently installed programs list of Add or Remove Programs, right-click the key in the left pane of the
      Registry Editor window, and then click Delete.

      Click Yes in response to the "Are you sure you want to delete this key and all of its subkeys?" message.
    • On the File menu, click Exit to quit Registry Editor.
    • Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click
      Add or Remove Programs
      .

      In the Currently installed programs list, verify that the program whose registry key you deleted is no longer listed.

    Uninstalling software

    Hello there,

    This is Jo. The Norton antivirus program on my computer became non-functional so I tried to uninstall it. I uninstalled by going to control panel, add/remove programs, pointed to the Norton icons and hit delete. Now I have a file on C drive called: ccSetMgr.exe which will not go away. I tried many times to delete it but no success. I tried to reinstall Norton but the softwar recognises the remaining file and hence does not permit reinstallation. Please give me some help.
