Any advice on how to remove /uninstall Pinnacle, Normal Win 10 programs does not list it, also the program itself has no uninstall option, lastly, the third party uninstall programs, will not remove it..seems impossible?

Why do you want to uninstall it, assuming you paid for it?

Do the third-party uninstallers list Pinnacle Studio for removal but won't remove it or do they not list it at all?

Have you looked through the Pinnacle folder under Program Files to see if there is an uninstaller included there?

I would download and install in a VM and take a look myself if they had a trial version but I cannot find any such option. Seems the only option is to buy it.

I did search for "Pinnacle Studio Forum" and got lots of hits so perhaps your best option might be to join one of those dedicated forums and ask there.

Thanks, Jim for your reply, Yes did buy it but am giving my laptop away (to a senior) and just wanted to take off some software programs for various reasons.
I Will take your advice and Contact Pinnacle forums and ask there.

Must admit though have NEVER come across a software program before that could not be uninstalled, did think of deleting the whole program folder, but not sure what it would take with it, so decided against it.

BTW it did show up in Revo uninstaller but no success there either...incidentally am using Win10

Thanks again

I don't believe I've ever come across a software that couldn't be uninstalled either.

Why don't you Reset Windows 10, that will automatically remove all installed programs and leave you with a pristine Windows 10, exactly like a fresh/clean install.

You are welcome by the way, any time.
