Trying to uninstall a program

by lockoutgirl . Updated 19 years ago

The program Symantec PCAnywhere has recently become corrupt on my computer. I’ve run it successfully in the past, and recently, when I go to run it, I get the error message “pcAnywhere is not installed properly. Please run SETUP”. All attempts to uninstall through Control panel result in being asked for a CD. I do not have a disk for this version. I have a disk for a previous version, and when I try to just install that version, it tells me I do not have access to the registry. I have run regedit and tried to edit the registry where the Symantec files are located, but it is not allowing me to edit.

We use this program a good bit at work to connect with XP users, so I need to get this problem solved as soon as I can. If anyone has any solutions, I would be grateful.
