    How do I unistall a program that is installed in a non existing directory?


    When i go to the sistem registry editor, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall , and use the unistall line to unistall the program, the unistaller of the program starts but gives me an error saying obviously that he can't find the right folder, in fact the install location says that it is installed in a non existing directory. Is there any other way to force the unistallation?

    :)

    Alternate Program directory, all programs missing


    A list of programs installed? There are programs that can list the software you've installed on your system, and of course there is the Control Panel, Programs and Features list.

    Autocorrect in Win10... basically non-existent(?)

    In this case, we suggest following the steps below to work around the issue:

    • On the Cortana search box, type Typing Settings and press
      Enter.
    • Turn off Autocorrect misspelled words and Highlight misspelled words.
    • Restart your PC.
    • Do step 1 and 2 but this time turn on Autocorrect misspelled words
      and Highlight misspelled words.
    • Restart your PC.
    • Check if the issue still exist.

    If you have questions, please let us know.

    How do I unistall a program that is installed in a non existing directory?

    Why is Outlook storing files on a non-existent directory?

    Julian,

    What are the folder paths for the 4 files?
    Why have you referred to "a non-existent directory"?
    Which pst and/or ost fies does Outlook have open [this is in the Account settings, Datafiles tab]?
