I've used Revo Uninstaller for years, and must say it's worked very well
for
me. It does affect the registry, but then part of its job is to remove
redundant registry entries left by the uninstalled program.
However, if you're totally blind, I'm not sure how you'd cope with the
Advanced Mode, where you are supposed to check all the entries on a list
that appear in bold type. If your screen reader can read them and report
the
text attributes, fair enough, but I don't seem to be able to achieve this
using NVDA, and find it quicker to check the bolded items using the
mouse.
Of course, not everyone can do this. The items you are checking appear to
be
registry entries, so you could come to grief with this. Normally, though,
Revo reports that it's setting a restore point before the uninstallation,
so
even if you make a mistake, you could go back and restore your system.
Even if this is a problem, you could still try Revo's Moderate Mode.
Vince.

Carol they are all good suggestions thank you. I am not sure that I
would
know when I installed it in terms of 'going back'. Maybe that
information
is somewhere, is it? As for Revo Uninstall, I was advised that this was
not good to use as it can play havoc with the Registry. This I was told
from a techy person working for Microlink and I am sure there techy
people
are good.

Well Eleanor,
Perhaps it's because you played around getting rid of registry entries
etc.
I don't know that this will make a difference, but you could try a
re-install and then uninstall using Revo Uninstaller. You have various
levels to choose from and a very thorough uninstall might do it. If
you
didn't use the one I mean (not sure what the software calls it) then
I'd
try that first before you reinstall anything.
Otherwise, you could go back to *before* you uninstalled and take it
from
there.

It's always done a good job for me, and I'd give it a go
with this.

Yes Amro I did though the Techy guy from Microlink told
me he would not recommend it as it can mess up the
Registry.

Unsuccessfully
Hi All
I cannot uninstall Webbie. Now before anyone
recommends I contact Alestair
King, I have done so by e-mail and answer phone but
have not had a response.
The error message I am getting is below and maybe
someone else has had this
problem in the past and has been able to resolve it. I
had someone from the
company that provides my software from the Open
University try for about an
hour on Friday to see if he could assist but he was
unable to do so. He was
a highly experienced Information Technology person but
he said my only route
was to contact Alestair King and he got me the contact
details off the website but no response from Alestair
about this.
