I have run uninstall in windows and it keeps popping up asking me to activiate it. I tried starting in safe mode and following your instructions, no joy. I tried re-installing a 15 day free trial and uninstalling it, no, same problem.

Command

If I go into registry editor I see it in my registry so I used Revo Uninstaller, nope still popping up. How can I get rid of this programI have been on the phone with geek squad and just paid them $30 to do NOTHING. They have never seen this problem before.

Hello Mastiff, welcome to the Community!Just so I fully understand exactly which directions you followed, as I know there have been a lot of suggestions put out in this thread.Have you tried to open a command prompt and manually type in the uninstall command? We have had several reports that if one clicks Start and simply copies the command into the Run box, that it will fail. It must be typed manually, exactly, either from the run/search box after clicking start or from a command prompt or it may not work correctly.Let me know, or if you need more clarification as to how to do it exactly correct, just let me know!
