hi

locate the app on your pc - ie: C:/Program Files/Your app Folder/yourapp.exe

right click the exe file select properties, a dialog will open select
"Compatibility" tab,

under "Privilege Level" click "Show settings for all users" button

confirm by clicking continue

in the next dialog goto "Privilege Level", tick the check box - Run this
program as an administrator, click apply then ok, then ok.

open control panel, then Programs and Features, scroll down to the app you
want to uninstall, click it to highlight it, right click it to display
uninstall option and uninstall it.

Greetings! I am using Windows Vista Home Premium. I recently downloaded an
upgrade that requires me to uninstall a previous version of the program. When
I go to "Control Panel" and click on "Uninstall or Change a Program," I get
this message, which I didn't see a month or so ago:

"Your system administrator has disabled Programs and Features."

Thus, I can't uninstall the program and install the upgrade, which is an
urgent matter. Can any of the Vista experts help me with this problem? Thank
you.
