How to uninstall itunes??????

P

Pappy

I can't seem to uninstall iTunes software from my computer (I think it was
installed when I downloaded and installed Quicktime to view some dumb
video.) I went into Control Panel and then Add or Remove Programs, the
uninstaller seemed to works ok but nothing was uninstalled. I'm running
Windows XP Home Sp2.
Any help greatly appreciated.

That is indeed how you get rid of iTunes if you want to. The
uninstaller may be corrupted. Reinstall iTunes and try uninstalling
afterwards to see if that works for you.

The uninstall utility for a program will remove the registry entries and the
files. To see if the uninstall was performed you can also check the program
files directory to see if the Itunes folder has been removed. The presence
of Itunes in the add/remove programs area corresponds to a registry entry
that may not be removed until you reboot. I would try rebooting the
computer and see if there is a change. If the uninstsall is not working you
should get some kind of error message. In a worst case scenario where you
get problems with an uninstall you can also try installing the program and
uninstalling it again.

Good luck!

Try doing a search on i Tunes. Anything that shows up in the search should
be thrown in the trash can

Not always.

Frequently, I will find registry entries and files on the hard disk after
uninstalling an app.
