Microsoft Silverlight
« on: July 06, 2010, 08:32:08 »
How do I get rid of this? I have tried "Addor Remove Porgrammes" but keep getting a message that it cannot be found, I`ve tried Search and again I "get cannot be found". ive gone to microsoft for help and agin "It cannot be found" It has slowed up my PC. When I go online the speed is so slow I can pop into my kitchen boil the kettle and mad a cup of tea before the page I want appears "HELP"

I'm sure you are but just to be sure, this is what you've tried?

Start  >  Control Panel  >  Add or Remove Programs

scroll down to Microsoft Silverlight, clive once to highlight it, then click on 'remove' button, job done

If (as it sounds) this is what you're doing to get your "not found" error, it sounds like you may have partially deleted something? In any event, would suggest you try reloading silverlight fro link below then retry "add or remove programs"

Try the Windows install cleanup utility:

Save file - You may need to ight click on teh file and "run as administrator" depending on your OS..

But note that Microsoft have removed this from their download section..
