    Hi

    yeah well not much info to go on, to get effective assistance its always best to give detail otherwise your question will get looked over.



    What Windows Version and are you logged in as admin?

    What version of Visual Studio?

    Do you get any error messages when uninstalling ( full error message verbatim )?

    Did you uninstall .NET before running the uninstaller for VS? if so re-install .NET as its a needed component for uninstalling many of the newer versions of VS, then if VS uninstalls you can then uninstall .NET


    some info from MSDN

    manual steps from the MSKB

    *hedged bets of VS 2005 as its the last most common version
