| | Uninstalled Program, but Program Name Remains in Program & Featur I attempted to install a web camera on my Vista computer. I only got a partial installation so I uninstalled it from Control Panel>Program and Features (add & remove programs) and it uninstalled. The program name remains and will not uninstall even though the program is gone. How do I get the program name from the Program and Feature list? Roger |
