#1 Post by DarsVaeda » Sun Oct 14, 2007 8:20 pm

hi,

i can uninstall every program i want, except every thinkpad software.
i click "remove" but simply nothing happens?
i mainly want to remove access connections.
is there another way to do it?

or does somebody know why i can't uninstall stuff?

that's strange, many of us have installed/removed/re-installed Access Connections without a hiccup. Are you attempint the uninstall through Windows "Add/Remove"?

See if you can still get Software Installer and use it to uninstall. You may have a Windows corruption (spyware, virus, whatever).

ccleaner also has a fairly robust program remover. It 'sees' a number of applications that Windows Add/Remove does not . . .
