I was given a pc ages ago from a company that went bankrupt. It has solidworks program on the pc, but I don't have a dongal..not sure if that's how you spell it..anyway. I want to remove the program but I don't seem to be able to. I have tried the add/remove programs, but no luck. Anyone know how I can get it off the pc? The pc is constantly looking for the dongal and it really slows everything down. Any help MUCH appreciated!

SolidWorks ::

I've found in the past that Revo Uninstaller works very well at removing programs including registry entries as well. If when trying to remove a program and your getting the message that its in use try a program called Unlocker. it will find whats using that program and allow you to "unlock" it then be able to delete/remove it
