Windows 10: Can't Uninstall Spyhunter 5

Not sure how this got on my computer in the first place, but now I can't get it off. When I get to the page where I'm supposed to be able to click "continue to uninstall" the option is just not there.

Just in case that anybody reading this thread still has problems with removing SpyHunter:

a) As already mentioned in my prior post: see this

QUOTE

If SpyHunter can't be uninstalled from Programs and Features in Control Panel...download and run
SpyHunterCleaner by M-K-D-B, a simple batch file (converted into a .exe) that should remove all traces of SpyHunter.

• Make sure you save SpyHunterCleaner to your Desktop or it will not work. <-
  Important!
• Disable the real-time protection of your anti-viurs and ant-imalware software.
• Close all open programs and internet browsers.
• Double-click on SpyHunterCleaner.exe to run the tool.
• A command line window will open. Press any key to start the removal process.
• After the tool has finished, it will automatically reboot your computer in order to remove SpyHunter completely.
