  1. What you can do is, under the start menu, go under the software program, and look for something that says uninstall. If that fails, go to "C:\Program Files\" (or whatever your system drive is) and physically delete the program file. The latter method isn't recommended, but is a last resort when you need to get rid of it.


  2. click on start

    run

    type in regedit

    search in left colum

    \hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft...

    then click on one of the list ...to which cam it is then right click and remove

    becare not to remove wrong one as this is software for your whole computer ...use the registry file at own risk

  3. broken uninstall

    install the freeware prog tweakui - powertoy from microsoft - will remove entry from add remove - then remove its startup from either START- programs - startup

    or run regedit and look under

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\...

    and

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\W...

    and remove anything that points to your webcam

    then delete the install directory.. reboot..
