Hi all,
From some time I'm unable to properly remove any installed software, doesnt matter if it was just installed seconds ago or while ago. When I try to remove, I'm getting: "Some_software was not completely removed. Do you want to remove it from list of installed programs?".
In fact, nothing is removed. I tried soft reset few times. Also, I'd like to avoid hard reset since its quite a lot of work. Someone maybe possibly have an idea how to fix it avoiding hard-reset?
thanks,
Chris

The only way to remove all the files is to ask the software developers for a list of files / extentions. I had this problem when trying out different software and found when trying to re install some, the re installation failed. After removing all the files, I was able to re install.

When you try to uninstall a program which has components running in the background you will fail.

If you make a softreset and try to uninstall it again, you will success.

Another choice to uninstall these programs: it seems totally defferent than the problem, but when I use vijay555's phone-kill application I can uninstall immediately those ununinstallable softs.

That's it.
It works.
