Gmail notifier plus uninstall... Help

I downloaded this Gmailnotifier plus and now I cannot uninstall it. It is not in the programs list. I looked it up on Google and found nothing. Only shady sites with download programs that actually did not work. Damn, I wish I had found out how difficult it was to get rid of and I would not have downloaded it. Please, if anyone knows how to do it, tell me, and send a link. Thanks so very much.

you could check if its listed in with Revo Uninstaller Pro - Uninstall Software, Remove Programs easily and uninstall it. also try a System Restore to a date before you installed it. & post back.

I am downloading the revo. I am totally freaked out of restore. I did it on my other computer and it went totally black. I have been spending 3 days trying to recoup it.. I have no clue what happened. I suspect something got corrupted. Oh well, fortunately I have another computer. Thanks for answering.. and you wouldn't be an expert with testdisk by any chance eh? It is a bit daunting for me. Be well. thanks

Hi, I fixed it... I had to force delete it since it did not show in any list. I hope that in deleting all the related files I don't have a problem. My God it was stubborn... I would classify it as malaware. I can't believe that no one has had a similar problem. I found no help online. Thank you for your advice, and if you have any information about my other problem, please do write. Thanks

what antivirus do you use? suggest a full scan with Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO removes malware including viruses, spyware, worms and trojans, plus it protects your computer and Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows to be sure you are free of any worm. also do a SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker this fixed corrupted files and requires a restart once completed.

regarding test disk, you're right i got no information on that, i'm googling it but will ask another member to look into it.

Hi,
I could not use anything because it was not booting under any circumstance. I used Ubuntu. I scanned with it and it was not a virus. File corruption I am afraid. Thanks for inquiring.

No, but all I could access was the bios. No advanced commands either. Just nothing at all worked. Ubuntu can load, so I was trying to use testdisk to find problems.. I just don't know how to interpret the findings. The explanation for the program are a bit over my head (partitions, primary, legal etc.). How would I use what you suggested if I cannot access DOS? thanks

The best procedure when a Program will not uninstall is to System Restore to before it was installed, or reinstall the program for the purpose of uninstalling it.

As you apparently deleted the Program and did not correctly run its Uninstaller, there is the possibility that System Files were damaged or deleted, too. KoolKat has now asked you twice if you ran SFC -SCANNOW Command. Maybe you are not aware that you can click on the blue link to see how to run it. Please do so now and run it rather than posting back that you have not run it yet. Let us know the results.

Koolkat also made an excellent suggestion that you System Restore, to a point before the program was installed. Instead of replying that this "freaks you out," you can ask for our help to run it correctly since this is a vital first-line defense against these kinds of problems. In fact I would do it now. Have it scan for programs that will be affected first so you know what will be removed - ideally the problem program.

If System Restore fails to run correctly then we can help you run it from System Recovery Options or repair it using SFC -SCANNOW Command. This is what we do here, what KoolKat is trying to help you do. She is very good at it. This is not our first time at the rodeo.

oops. Never meant to offend anyone. I was unclear, my fault. The problem I was talking about happened to another laptop, not the one with the deleted program (by the way I did use the program she suggested, Revo Uninstaller, but I had to force deleted it with that program because it could not locate the program anywhere). The other laptop turned black and unresponsive after doing system restore (possibly something went wrong and it got interrupted, battery ran out of juice.. not sure). Nothing worked except for ubuntu. I do need help with this issue.
Now back to the original issue, I think everything is ok. I got no problem after shutting down, so I assume the program got deleted ok. Sorry if anyone got upset. Probably I should post the other problem with a new thread and mark this one solved. What do you think? Thanks very much.
