Cannot uninstall Driver Whiz
When I go to "Programs..." in my control panel, I am only offered the possibility of "change," not the usual drop-down with "change" and "uninstall."

So what happens if you click on Change? Do you then get the option to uninstall?
Thanks for the reply, TVeblen. What happens when I do what you suggested is that an "install wizard" window opens. It's like they don't want me to get rid of their program, and I don't want to be stuck with it.
I went to that page after I'd tried option #2, which did not work. Then I tried option #1. It deleted the folder, but not the program. ???
Yes.
You could try CCleaner. CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
Download and install it, then go to the Tools Tab and the Uninstall Window.
Uninstall the program from there.
CCleaner will usually do the chore of removing the entry if the program is not installed, or removed from the system incorrectly.
Just to be sure, you should do a search for "Whiz" in Windows Explorer to be sure the folder does not exist somewhere.
Thanks. TVeblen. Hadn't thought of that. I'll give it a go & let you know how things turn out.
OK, a question before I start: I've managed to dodge the "buy' prompts, but now I'm being shown a screen with a lot of things checked off. I am further informed by a warning that I am about to get rid of some things "permanently." I know I'll lose passwords, etc., but will I lose all of my Facebook entries? That happened the last time I cleared my cache.
It sounds like you are on the "Cleaner" Tab. That is a great tool, but not what you want right now.
Go to the "Tools" Tab. The "Uninstall" window will open by default. Then find "Driver Whiz" in the list of programs and uninstall it.
