Can't uninstall Microsoft Student 2006!!

[Luvrsmel]

Add/Remove programs shows the program but just gives me how much use it
has...There are NO remove options. So I tried to reinstall it using the
original cd and it says its already installed and that if I want it removed,
to go to Add/Remove in control panel to perform that function. I'm really
frustrated because its a huge program taking up a lot of Hard Drive Space
and the worst is MS doesn't support the 2006 version anymore and there are
no updates. Could someone please tell me how to get this forsaken program
off my computer? Should I manually start deleting MS Student 2006 folders?
TIA

What happens when you double click on the "Student 2006" line in the ADD/REMOVE window?

Crossposting is fine when done in moderation but I fail to see any
moderation in your case. Let's be a bit more moderate, especially with such
a trivial problem! Why, for example, would you post a program removal
question in a hardware group? Remember - program=software!

Use the scroll bar when viewing the list of programs to be uninstall. This
will probably make the "Remove" button appear.

On the Microsoft Student 2006 DVD line all I get is a line that specifies
"used" - Last Used On and "rarely." There are NOP remove options. I have
other programs that have remove options in my add/remove program but Student
doesn't have it..NOR does the Microsoft Student Graphing Calculator have it.
Please suggest something!

Sorry for the inconvenience but the scrollbar is working fine..as I scroll
down the list of programs and they are highlighting automatically..if this
is what you mean. As for your moderation comment, I fail to see the purpose
of your statement since I'm desperate to have this program removed and I'm
reaching out to ANYONE who is remotely connected with MS to offer some
advice. I "think" your advice has failed to resolve my "trivial" problem
however...

Think your Registry needs "cleaning" or "repairing"? Read

We don't care whether it has a "remove" button, when it was last used,
whether other programs have buttons, or if this one carries its lunch in a
handkerchief.

Theres no one connected to MS here, its a public user group, to reach MS you
have to phone MS Support

Let me re-phrase...

How does any of this relate to many of these groups, like the hardware or the embedded group? Why not repost it to the Apple group while you're at it?

You're a special case because you're you and you're desperate, and that
justifies excessive and inappropriate cross-posting? For that alone...

Thank you for re-phrasing and answering the question asked eons ago.

And please accept my apologies. I thought you were trying to remove the
program, not insist that it have a button. Some programs do not have a
remove button but the remove choice appears when you select the program from
the Add/Remove list.

Now that I know your interest is merely tickled over the absence of the
button - not in the button's functionality - I can only repeat, some
applications do not have such a button. Sorry.

That is not the way these groups work. If you post garbage like this to
multiple off topic groups, your gonna get told not to, and if you have a
piss poor attitude, your gonna get ignored, if not told outright that your a
moron and don't deserve help. Either follow the rules or move along.
