    Uninstalling a program only removes its entry from the list


    Lately I've started having the following issue: When I click "Uninstall" in the "Uninstall or change program" utility in the control panel, it only removes the entry instantly, but nothing happens, and the program remains on the PC

    What is it?

    Thanks

    :)

    How to uninstall an installed "ghost" program, i.e. does not appear in the " uninstall or change a program" list

    Does the program list an uninstaller under its entry in the program folder?

    Download
    Revo uninstaller
    & see if that allows you to uninstall.

    This website lists how to remove that program: Genie Cleaner (a.k.a. Super PC Cleaner). How to remove

    Windows Mobile 6.1 . I cannot remove Uninstalled Software from Apllication Uninstall list

    This worked! This was the only place left that the offending entry seems to have existed which made it appear in the uninstall programs list. Thanks so much! After doing all the registry editing that was suggested in this thread, THIS WORKED! Of course,
    one will want to delete the rogue registry entries as well, but this is the step necessary to remove it once and for all from the uninstall programs list. Thanks again!
