  1. Unable to uninstall an app/game


    I'm trying to uninstall an app/game called Red Dead Redemption 2 because it's taking up a lot of space. But then I get this message:Windows cannot find 'D:\Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\unins000.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.I don't have it on Steam, Epic Games or Rockstar launcher. And I can't find any files about it either. Is there a way to fix this?

    :)

  2. unable to uninstall an app

    I had downloaded modern combat 5 game in my phone from the store... But it's not listed in the app list OR it's not there in the start menu..

    When I go to store it's showing that the game is installed and gives me an option to view..but when I tap view the store exits..

    so I am unable to uninstall it from the phone though it has consumed memory in my device..

    Nokia Lumia 730. Any suggestions???

    Unable to uninstall app

    Everquest II is listed twice under Apps & features, but not under Uninstall or change a program under Control Panel Home under Programs and Features. I am unable to uninstall it under Programs and Features since it is not listed. The game has been removed
    from the registry. The folder with the program files and data files has been deleted. My computer appears to be running fine, so I don't want to try an unknown piece of non microsoft software to try to uninstall the small remnant of the game that remains.

    Unable to uninstall an app on Windows 10

    Hello dayhiker4k,

    First, I went ahead and moved this thread to the appropriate category, so no need to worry about that. Thanks for letting us know about this.

    Regarding your concern, I have listed below the most basic steps on how to uninstall a program on Windows 10 via settings. Try it out and see if it helps:

    • On the Start menu, select Settings.
    • Select Apps.
    • Select the program, and then select Uninstall. Some apps built into Windows can't be uninstalled.
    • Follow the instructions on the screen.

    If the above step won't work, I suggest that you check with Webroot's support website for steps on how to completely uninstall their programs. Some anti-virus apps require certain permissions, or may have have different steps to perform in order to completely
    take it out of the system.

    If you're still having trouble uninstalling the app, the last resort that I can share to you is to uninstall it using
    Command Prompt. Follow the steps provided by Ramesh.Kumar from
    this link and let us know the outcome.

    We'll keep an eye out to your response.
