Cant find uninstall.log error

[zed]

Hi,I am getting an error message when trying to uninstall
several programs..."Could not open install.log file" Any
help out there? This is affecting a bunch of junk, there
are several programs I want to get rid of but cant! I have
tried reinstalling some of them, but I still get the
error, when trying to uninstall. Any Help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks...Zed

The install.log/uninstall.log usually contains the uninstallation
information about a program. When you remove a program from Add/Remove
Programs, the log files come into play and remove the corresponding software
entries from the registry and the files in the hard disk.

If the LOG files are missing, you may need to reinstall the application
again (in the same path) and then try a clean uninstall again. In some
cases, the application might be removed, but the entries may still exist in
the Add/Remove Programs applet. Orphaned entries are usually a result of a
system restore rollback operation.
