I uninstalled a certain program, but then something happened to my computer which I had to use System Restore to remedy. However, in doing so I reverted to a point before the uninstall, causing the program to reappear on the add/remove programs list. The program cannot be removed the traditional way, since the data no longer exists, and it bothers me immensely to have it hanging there. The program came with the computer, so I do not have the CD/executable to reinstall and then uninstall it as some forums suggested.
I realize that the cause is probaly an invalid registry key that came up after I ran system restore, but Registry Mechanic did not help. Is there something I can do to remove the program?
