I seem to have lost some programs, even tho' the fuckers still work. It's
all rather baffling as this has never happened to me before. Well, not like
this

I installed all the software that came with my shiny new (well it was when I
bought it!) JVC Everio hard drive camcorder.
No problems there as it all worked fine.
The only thing was that I didn't really like using it.
I found d/l'ing my recordings through windows and using windows Movie Maker
to be a lot less bothersome and easier than the JVC stuff.
Especially for what I need it for.
I've been doing that for a while now so I thought fuck it, lets uninstall
all the JVC
stuff seen as I never use it.
Went to do this and I just can't uninstall it.

Normally, there's two ways I can do this.
The first way I tried was to go into my start menu, where you can hover over
the program which brings up a box with different options to do with the
program, like run it, read the help stuff an' what have ya.
At the bottom of this is the 'uninstall this program option. (I've used this
method to uninstall lots of other programs in the past with no bother at
all).
I clicked on the uninstall option and the installshield wizard box came up
as usual.
Now normally after that the uninstalling stuff comes up, I follow the
instructions on it and the program is uninstalled.
This time, and with all the JVC stuff, the installshield wizard box comes up
and then nothing, nothing at all.

The next thing I do if I can't uninstall something from the start menu (and
up to now that's only ever been because the option to uninstall isn't there)
is to use the start/control panel/programs and features/uninstall program
method.
Clicked on that only to find that none of the JVC stuff is in there.
Everything else is, just as it should be, but the camcorder stuff is nowhere
to be seen.

Does anybody know what's going on here that will help me find the programs
so I can uninstall them? Is there any other way to uninstall programs if
these two ways don't work?

The programs work fine if I want to use them.
I go into the stat menu, click on them there and up they come, working fine
even though they're not anywhere in the programs and features page.

I don't know if this is important but the programs are....

Cyberlink PCM4everio Power Cinema NE for Everio

Cyberlink Power2go

Cyberlink PowerDirector

Cyberlink PowerProducer

All these came from the software CD that was bundled with the camcorder.

Anybody know what's going on here and how I can uninstall these pesky little
programs??

I'd appreciate any help that may be out there. There's a blow job/muffing
out for whoever comes up with a solution.

Run the install disc it may give a repair/uninstall option if not go through
the install process and see if that repairs the uninstaller.

LOL, yeah, can't beat having a wank and a spliff and leaving summat alone
that's getting on yer tits when you can't get it to work.
It's funny you should say that cos that's exactly what I do everytime summat
like this happens.
In fact, it's almost as if you've been watching my every move the way you
said to do that.
It's fucking uncann....right, that's it, I'm off to check me house out for
hidden cameras...

The sun was out this morning, it's rather cloudy this afternoon. It was
quite chilly last night, in fact the gritters were out yesterday evening.
Yesterday we had a rather nasty hail storm.
