I tried to install a game on my computer but then a message popped up that read: Setup has detected that unInstallSheild is in use. Please close unInstallSheild and restart setup. How do I close unInstallSheild and install my game?

Hope this will help you a little bit...
unInstallShield is a program that uninstalls programs. It is published by Macrovision Corporation. Another Macrovision product, InstallShield, installs programs. unInstallShield is sometimes included when you install a new program so that you can then safely uninstall it if you need to at a later time.
If you receive an error message that refers to unInstallShield, the file that opens unInstallShield (IsUninst.exe) might be corrupted.
So all what you can do is go to the InstallShield support website and read FAQ or common problems there ; it could help you. There are too many so i couldnt list it here.
Good luck

Most likely comp is just "stuck" hit ctrl+alt+delete (all together) you'll get a list of what's currently running. find uninstallshield and click "end" button. If this doesn't work try restarting.

I think you just have to restart your computer and re-install your game.
