Youmight be tired of using Microsoft's desktop and laptop operating system. This guide will help you purge it from your computer. There are three methods you can use: use the first option if you don't have a chance when booting the computer to mash any buttons to enter any menus, use the second option if your computer doesn't boot into windows immediately and allows you to mash a button to enter a menu, and use the third option if you're running Windows through Boot Camp on a Mac.

Hi, I have a problem with the desktop app on Windows 10. The app will not run so I tried to re-install, the installer fails with error 2. I then tried to uninstall and the uninstaller fails with the message "dropbox failed to uninstall". I have looked for similar problems and tried the various solutions but nothing fixes the problem on my machine.


Thanks for the help guys, I got there in the end but it was far from straight forward. I followed the advanced uninstall but that left two files in the client folder (DropboxExt.22.0.dll and DropboxExt64.22.0.dll) that refused to delete. I kept getting 'access denied'. I eventually deleted them by starting Windows 10 in Safe Mode. (Now that's not easy in Win 10!).


Did this post not resolve your issue? If so please give us some more information so we can try and help - please remember we cannot see over your shoulder so be as descriptive as possible!


... I know that can be the worst "advice" to hear, however I think it's very possible that some part of the install process didn't completly disengage - for want of a better word - and this could be impeeding the uninstall.

I've been trying to uninstall Dropbox from my laptop, it's a HP with Windows 10 Pro. I've unlinked it from the Dropbox website but it's still taking up space in my laptop. I've also uninstalled the app from my laptop but it still shows up in my file explorer. I did a bit of research and other people have been able to right click the Dropbox icon and uninstall it that way but it doesn't show up in my start menu so I'm not able to do it that way. I've restarted my computer too, just to be sure but that hasn't helped.


To permanently delete your account you have to go to the web interface (www.dropbox.com) and log in with your user/pasword and go to settings and then second tab from left. Far down at the bottom you find: "Delete my personal Dropbox" or something like that depending on your language....


I uninstalled my previous version of node.js (0.8.11) and downloaded the latest, 0.10.24 from the node.js website and installed it. However, after running node --version, it still indicates that I'm running v0.8.11. Obviously, some stuff was left behind during the uninstall process, and it's causing me to have all sorts of errors when trying to add modules through npm. I've seen solutions to this for OSX and Linux, but couldn't find anything for Windows. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.


I ran into a problem where my version of NodeJS (0.10.26) could NOT be uninstalled nor removed, because Programs & Features in Windows 7 (aka Add/Remove Programs) had no record of my having installed NodeJS... so there was no option to remove it short of manually deleting registry keys and files.


I attempted to install the newest recommended version of NodeJS, but it failed at the end of the installation process and rolled back. Multiple versions of NodeJS also failed, and the installer likewise rolled them back as well. I could not upgrade NodeJS from the command line as I did not have SUDO installed.


SOLUTION: After spending several hours troubleshooting the problem, including upgrading NPM, I decided to reinstall the EXACT version of NodeJS on my system, over the top of the existing installation.


Now that Windows was aware of the forgotten NodeJS installation, I was able to uninstall my existing version of NodeJS completely. I then successfully installed the newest recommended release of NodeJS for the Windows platform (version 4.4.5 as of this writing) without a roll-back initiating.


In my case, the above alone didn't work. I had installed and uninstalled several versions of nodejs to fix this error: npm in windows Error: EISDIR, read at Error (native) that I kept getting on any npm command I tried to run, including getting the npm version with: npm -v.


If by mistake you tried uninstalling through cli (it will not remove completely most often), then you do not get the uninstall option in the control panel. In this case, install the same version of node and then follow step 1.


Anyone know how to do this without having to go through another Ubuntu install?Also are all of the Ubuntu updates safe to take? Does Ubuntu have restore points in case something goes haywire from the updates?


Since your question is really several questions, I'll divide my answer into parts. Unfortunately I'm sitting on my windows laptop now, so I can't generate any screenshots or even test the programs and see where all the options are - if there's something you can't find, don't hesitate to ask.


When you installed Ubuntu alongside Windows, the installer created (at least) one new partition on your hard drive, on which Ubuntu was installed. Windows usually occupies two partitions (one for the boot loader and one for C:\), so that would mean you now have three.


If you, when you start Windows, have any files you want to save on C:\, you need to back them up before you continue. One way to do that would be to simply copy them to the Ubuntu partition, which can be done by following these steps:


Instead of creating a new partition and mounting it, you could also start from a Live CD/USB and expand the Ubuntu partition. However, I would strongly recommend having a separate partition for stuff you want to keep regardless of OS version. My reasons for this will become apparent in the next part of this answer...


If, by "Ubuntu updates", you mean the updates provided by the package management system every now and then, then yes, they are safe and stable. However, the upgrade process between Ubuntu versions (for example from Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10) is not always as stable, and it is usually recommended to install the new version from scratch instead of upgrading. (A fresh install is also usually a lot faster...)


Because this is so, it is often useful to have separate disk partitions for stuff you want to keep between upgrades. On my Ubuntu machine I have separate partitions for /home, /boot, and /data - and that has saved me many times when I screwed up some weird configuration file and had to reinstall Ubuntu to fix it.


EDIT: After deleting the contents of C:\Program Files\Docker and then downloading a fresh Docker MSI, then using the Remove option after it offers Repair or Remove, then finally reinstalling using that MSI, I was able to get around this issue and get the latest version of Docker installed.


Sorry for the delay. I tried to reproduce this bug without success, so I wrote a script that will be ship in the next version but as you cannot uninstall, I dump here the procedure so you can install the latest version.


Just a couple of issues with the powershell script above.

Had issues running with the -Destroy parameter but just evaluetd the functions direct to be able to invoike directly the destroy functions (Stop-MobyLinuxVM, Destroy-Switch, Destroy-MobyLinuxVM).

In your for loop you miss the (underscore) for the current object variable ($) might be related to the message board app. I see it is with the underscore in the ForceRemoveDocker.ps1 of the new release.


Each time I have to use the Microsoft Troubleshooting Uninstaller to uninstall Express, then I'm able to install the new Express version (installing as Admin won't help for future updates, I still get "Install Failed")


Hi Folks,

I am having problem with running 3D viewer on Fiji and after reading some of the topics in the Forum related to this problem, I have decided to uninstall Fiji from my laptop. Can anyone tell me the steps to take to perform this task (uninstall fiji)? I am running windows 10.

Thanks in advance.


Thanks for responding and the reference. I need to provide additional information. At the moment, one of the host computers associated with my microscope has ImageJ installed. This is the computer from our camera manufacturer yet, I do not know whom setup ImageJ. I noticed the installation was in this directory yet, needed to update from 1.48v. This was the result of the migration from http: to https: so, I have overcome this issue by being referred to this thread:


could you please help me completely uninstall zoom from my pc? I have tried to uninstall zoom from windows settings and used as well cleanzoom. Unfortunately when I restart my computer, zoom is reinstalling again and again.


I'm having an issue on my server when working with my VM guests, and I think its due to a recently installed update. What is the correct command to uninstall Windows Updates from either the command prompt, or Powershell?


Since I just ran into this, and it's not clear from the documentation, when using wusa /uninstall /kb: make sure you're using the actual number from the KB, not the number and the KB.
