Hello Farley,
Regarding un-intall problem there are two ways which I learned from support team.
1.
i) Uninstall PowerDirector software:
a.)Start--> Programs -->Cyberlink PowerDirector --> Uninstall PowerDirector
b.)Start --> Run --> type "regedit" --> click "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" --> click
"Software" --> click "Cyberlink" --> "PowerDirector". Delete folder "PowerDirector".
c.)Start --> Run --> type "regedit" --> click "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" --> click
"Software" --> click "Cyberlink" --> "PowerDirector". Delete folder "PowerDirector".
d)Reboot your PC
2. (instructions if you have power director 6. I do not know if yo have other one)It is a possibility that there isn't this CB file in Install shield Installation folder. Once it happened to me but later I got it.
a) Remove C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDirector folder
b) Remove C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{CB099890-1D5F-11D5-9EA9-0050BAE317E1} folder
Please note that this directory is a hidden directory. So, first select 'Show hidden files and folder' option from 'Folder option' and then delete that folder.
For that follow the steps:-
Open 'Control Panel' --> open 'Folder Options' --> click 'View' tab --> select 'Show hidden files and folder' --> click 'OK'.
Now delete the following folder:
c) Run regedit (Start --> Run --> type "regedit")
(1) Remove HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
SOFTWARE\CyberLink\PowerDirector
(2) Remove HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{CB099890-1D5F-11D5-9EA9-0050BAE317E1}
(3) Remove HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\InstallShield Uninstall Information\{CB099890-1D5F-11D5-9EA9-0050BAE317E1}
(4) Remove HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\InstallShield_{CB099890-1D5F-11D5-9EA9-0050BAE317E1}
Now install a fresh copy of PowerDirector 6.0 software
I hope if you follow above method with caution it will work.
I wish you success.
Ari
Fun for everyone
