how to uninstall this software

[mamax]

I bought a TV tuner card and install the intercast. for some reason, I uninstall it. when I reinstall it, the install wizard says that I already have one and need to uninstall. but the install wizard couldn't uninstall it because lose of one necessary file for uninstall.

So now I could not use this software.

what to do?

I think I understand what you're saying. I'd suggest taking a look at your registry, if you're working with Windows.

thanks.

how to search the registry for it?

Now that I haven't done before. I seen the Windows98 tool "Regedit" mentioned before(type Regedit at the run command prompt), but that information presented by Regedit is foreign to me, and I don't know if you'll understand it or not. Search the freewares, I'm sure there's a more user-friendly tool for editing your registry, or maybe someone else has one they could recommend.

1. Start --> Run --> regedit.exe
2. Expand the tree HKey_LocalMachine / Software
3. Look for the name of the software company eg: HKLM/Software/Adobe
4. Back up that key ( Registry --> Export Registry File...)
5. Delete that key.

Be very, very careful when you do this. Make sure that you do the backup.

You could also use regmon (www.sysinternals.com) and watch to see which key it looks before before it chokes.
