PS Elements 6 uninstall problem

BabyGrizzy · 04-08-2008

Well, I was in CCleaner's uninstall menu, and I pressed delete and without reading the dialog (thought it would warn me of uninstalling a program), I deleted the uninstall registry key.

Ok, fine, it was a key that was deleted, all I have to do is restore my system to an earlier point...Tried and failed.

Next thing: Find the uninstaller in the program folder...Well, Adobe seems to be the only company who makes things THIS difficult (takes an hour to install/uninstall ANYTHING)...There is no uninstall application.

Well, fine. There has to be something on their support site, right? Nope. Only stuff for Vista/Mac is useful (and I am using XP)...

****. Can any one figure out how I can uninstall this program? I tried Google, and found nothing. Someone please help...please?

Can you manually remove all the files and registry entries yourself?

Try re-installing the program, it should re-install the registry key along with the rest of the files.

I removed everything related, I did a search and deleted stuff, then went into regedit and searched everywhere. Still nothing.

I tried to reinstall the program, but it won't let me. I can't reinstall, the installer won't work
