Uninstallshield

I've tried to install a couple of games (championship manager 99/00 and a demo of rainbow six) and I have been unable to intstall either. The computer says that "Unistallshield is in use. Close unistallshield and restart setup. Error 432"

How can I close unistallshield? I've tired searching for it on the computer but cannot find it to turn it off

Thank you

Hi Daniel,

You'll have to use an ADMINISTRATOR account to start the installation.

Here's why:

InstallShield is trying to delete UNINST.EXE from the Windows directory so
that it can install a newer version. If you don't have the rights to do this, it will
presume that unInstallShield is already running, and give you that error message.
