You could try Revo Uninstaller. It's free and does a very good job. Then perhaps run Ccleaner and Malwarebytes, also free editions. :cool:

Have a read here too.

Did you mean NOT working? ABBY fine reader (at least mine) came with my Epson printer and is a OCR (Optical Character Recognition) programme. If you still have installation discs for your printer, try searching those and then, if you find it, insert that disc wen requested by Uninstall.

Have you tried going to control panel, the programs and features, and uninstalling from there ?

It sounds like you might be trying to use the uninstaller that is listed in the program directory - that requires the install disk (bizarrely enough)

Hope this helps

you might get further if you explained the problem with office
