    I have AceHTML 5 Freeware that I installed back in 2002 and have not used in years. I want to uninstall it but there is no entry for it in Add/Remove Programs for it and I cannot find any documentation anywhere in the product to help me unintstall it. There is also no entry for it when I look for it with CCleaner.

    It is not really causing me any harm just setting here on my PC but it would be nice to get rid of it -- anyone have any ideas on how to properly and safely remove it?

    Thanks

    Try using Revo Uninstaller http://www.majorgeeks.com/download5706.html or Free Uninstaller http://www.majorgeeks.com/Free_Uninstaller_d5763.html or Remove It Uninstaller http://majorgeeks.com/RemoveIt_d3839.html or My Uninstaller http://majorgeeks.com/MyUninstaller_d5912.html If none of those will do it, simply delete the program folder to the recycle bin, then run CCleaner on the registry. There are programs that will scan for and remove files orphaned from a program that's deleted to the recycle bin, but I can't think of any at the moment :confused :eek: rolleyes

    (all the programs mentioned are free ;) )

    Thanks dlb, none of the products you mentioned could find the software I wanted to delete so I took the delete, CCleaner route. It's only been a few moments (did a PC restart) and it appears to have done the job ok -- Thanks.
