i loaded "treasure in the royal tower" ,played for awhile , decided to uninstall the game.

well, it won't uninstall.
it won't go away with "remove Program"
it just seems to sit there mocking me....

You can try Revo Uninstaller.
http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html

If that doesn't work, you can manually delete the game folder and then run a registry cleaner to get rid of registry entries the game may have left behind.

For a registry cleaner, you can use ccleaner and "Scan for Issues."

Really?
I didn't think the game was all that bad.

not the game play, jen.
it's the hassle of installing and uninstalling - i only have this trouble with these, most other games behave themselves lol

niteowl, isn't there an Uninstall feature from the game's dropdown menu on the main list of Start programs? That's how I usually uninstall all my games (including Nancy).

yes , but it didn't work - nothing happened. believe me when i say i tried it all - finally had to go in and delete everything by hand. it's as gone now as it can be for the moment.
that's the thing - for me these are the only games that are "glitchy" about installing , or getting rid of when finished ,and i have now played them all to date.
