Default Unable to delete from Programs & Features

Installed an old game (Total Medieval Warfare) on a new Vista PC.

Didn't work. Goto "Programs & Features" to uninstall and that doesn't work.

So delete all folders, files etc relating to game.

Ran CCleaner a few times just to clear up the registry.

However game still listed in "Programs & Features" and I'm unable to get rid of it - usual type of error message "cannot find..............."

So the software has all gone, the registry is clean, how do I edit the "Programs & Features" to delete the name.

thanks

Hi there,

Open CCleaner and click on Tools in the left pane. Scroll down to the entry in the uninstall list and select it. Then click the Delete Entry button on the right.

Regards,
Adam
