    A long time ago (November 2010, I believe), I installed a game called Rigs of Rods, which I eventually got bored with and stopped playing.

    However, whenever I go to try and uninstall it, I get the following:

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I'm betting it's because you have somehow removed some files needed for the uninstaller. There is the crappy way of removing it, which is just deleting the folder. It's not the best way, but it's a way to remove many of the files. Worst case scenario; it won't be uninstalled, but you'll get some free space on your HDD.

    I've tried re-installing and updating, though, and that still didn't work.
    Re-installing or updating usually puts the uninstall files back on, doesn't it?

    Well you could always re-install at that point and then uninstall again. Still not very clean, but that will get more than just deleting the program files.

    From there not much you can do. Registry cleaners will often do more harm than good if you don't know what you are doing (especially since most of them are just malware in disguise). And no offense Amaury, considering how often you post in here I don't think the registry is something you should mess with.
