Answer 2

The preferable option is using the uninstaller that comes with the program in question. Go to Start, All Programs and find your program and check if an uninstaller is there. If not, follow the steps listed above about Add/Remove Programs. Some computers require a reboot to complete the uninstallation process.

Also there are some programs that need a standalone uninstaller. Adobe Flash is one of them.

If you can advise which program you want to uninstall, someone can proide you with more explicit info.
