Can't Delete a game from add/remove list

Hi...I recently played a few games on my laptop at work and when I was finished I tried to remove them in the add/remove programs section...
One game has ..... error code: -5001 with a very long description..
The other one will go thru the whole process of removing and still appears in list...What can I do to get them off the list???

 

You can use Regcleaner or Regseeker either one to clean those off the list. Both are freeware.

Otherwise you can manually do it:

REMOVING NAMES FROM ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS LIST


From the Start Menu hit Run
Type in REGEDIT.EXE, hit ENTER
Click the + on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Click the + on Software
Click the + on Microsoft
Click the + on Windows
Click the + on Current Version
Click the + on Uninstall


You'll see a list of program names exactly like the one in your window of removable
programs. Just highlight the ones you want to erase, then at the top of the box click on
Edit, then Delete.

 

Surferdude2.......Thank you for the backdoor solution you are a lifesaver...
I had to identify the files because they really weren't named clearly but the info that came up from clicking on it showed me which one to eliminate...
Thanks again...I haven't rebooted yet but I am thinking they will be gone when I do..

 

My pleasure and thanks for the update so others that stumble across this can be silently helped.

 

Your welcome...I did reboot and yep....everthing is perfect now...thanks again for the correct solution.
