ponder6 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I ran remove programs to delete hotfix, security entries, etc. they were removed from Contol panel but show up in CCleaner uninstall. CCleaner uninstaqll must be different than MS add/remove, therefore, wil using CCleaner uninstall be more effective than add/remove? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coronagold Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I don't think CC uninstalls at a deeper level than the Control Panel. Uninstall from CC just brings up each programs' usual uninstaller. What CC is 'picking up' after uninstalls are deeper registry bits. I had the same thing happen after I uninstalled a trial version of Adobe CS3. It took up 2 whole screens' worth of CS3 MSI entries that had no way of being deleted. But they're tiny and don't affect the system at all.

You can run the registry cleaner in CCleaner then to remove those invalid entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
