    Program not uninstalling

    I have a program called download meter and when i try to uninstall the box pops up with a pregression bar but moves nowhere i thought maybe it was just slow but it just sits there for hours and never moves. I can do anything else at the same time so its not like the computer has frozen or something like that it just doesnt uninstall. Is there anything I can do to remove it? Programs or whatever though if software would prefer free software not sure I want to pay just to remove a program i dont use.

    Windows 7 64bit btw

    Re: Program not uninstalling

    Have you tried removing it within Safe Mode?
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Re: Program not uninstalling

    There are a large number of uninstall tools in the market. Unfortunately, most of them are unreliable. They can not help you uninstall the programs thoroughly. The most helpful uninstall Tool is a software which can automatically scan and remove the registry completely. And it can enable you to remove program files thoroughly from your computer.
    mighty uninstaller is one of best uninstall software on the market. All the programs, applications and software on your computer can be deleted by the Force Uninstall function of Perfect Uninstaller. Just click here to see how it works.

    Re: Program not uninstalling

    My first point of call would be to see if the supplier of the software as a manual un-install option - a quick google shows a lot or results for "download meter" which doesn't help...
