Default App Uninstallation Problem

I'm hoping someone here can help. I've searched to the point where my eyes were glazing over, and didn't manage to find a solution to the problem I'm having, so here goes (it's more an annoyance than an earth-shattering problem, but one I'd love to sort).

I had a game installed (Bitforge Runes) on my TyTn II, which I've tried to uninstall. Despite the uninstall process apparently going through Ok, the app is still listed in the 'Remove Programs' list.

The program directory on the storage card has gone, as has any trace of related files on the device itself. Also, searching the registry for either 'Bitforge' or 'Runes' finds nothing.

Despite this, the game is still listed in 'Remove Programs'. Trying to remove it gives the usual message stating that the program could not be removed, and offering to simply remove it from the list. Selecting 'Yes' at this prompt also appears to go through Ok, but on looking through the list, the app is still listed.

Any idea where I can go to remove this from the 'Remove Programs' list?

Thanks guys. :)

I've got the same problem with some programs. They are (partially) removed from my device, but still appear in my program list. They don't show op in SKTools and i can't find any trace of the programs on my device or registry. It's not a problem. More annoying. I like a clean rom.

Some of those programs aren't entirely removed from my device. I can see that in my free storage memory.

Any ideas?

Default Can't remove program

I also have this issue. I have tried everything to remove TCPMP. I even went into the registry and searched and deleted all references to TCPMP. My final search came back empty.

Remove programs list still includes TCPMP.

The reason for wanting to remove TCPMP....It does not work!!! I keep getting a crash.txt message.

Anybody have any thoughts on this one, or am I flogging the proverbial expired equine?
