There is no one correct way to uninstall old apps. I like the following title.
REVO UNINSTALLER FREE
But when that fails I can manually delete the shortcuts and home folder of an app I want gone. Surely XP users after over a decade can do that.

I am trying to uninstall several Nancy Drew games off my computer and when I click to remove completely a window opens up and just sits there and it will finally close and I get this message Remote Procedure Failed. what is causing this and how can I fix it so I can get these off my hard drive? Thanks
