PC Tuneup demo won't uninstall...HELP

Jason1327 — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 06:02:09 GMT

After trying and being disappointed in Dell's PC Tuneup, I went to uninstall the demo but it only gives me this error message:

File "C:\Program Files\Dell\PC Tuneup\unins000.dat" does not exist. Cannot uninstall.

Since Dell's customer service is turning out harder to contact online then anything else in the world, does anyone have a suggestion??

Thanks!
