ShadowPuterDude Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Viewpoint is more of nuisance then a threat. You can uninstall the Viewpoint stuff via Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynx Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Hi jack_straw, and welcome to the forum. Please be more descriptive and specific ...I went into add/remove programs but i was only able to delete one of the two options. What are those "two options" in Add/Remove you are talking about? ...it won't delete the other program no matter how mnay times I click it... What "other program" precisely cannot be uninstalled ("deleted") via Add/Remove? My regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowPuterDude Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 There are privacy concerns with ViewPoint, it can technically be classified Spyware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_straw Posted December 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Hi jack_straw, and welcome to the forum. Please be more descriptive and specific What are those "two options" in Add/Remove you are talking about? What "other program" precisely cannot be uninstalled ("deleted") via Add/Remove? My regards Viewpoint Manager (Remove Only) is the one that can't be removed. When I click the remove button it says "Are you sure you want to remove viewpoint manager? I click yes and it just blinks and disappears. Viewpoint Manager is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowPuterDude Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 1) Press CTRL+ALT+DEL 2) Task Manger will open. Click on the Processes tab and search for VIEWMGR.EXE, if its found, click on it and then click End Task to close it. 3) Exit Task Manger 4) Click on Start, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs. 5) Uninstall Viewpoint Manager. 6) Close the Add/Remove Programs and Control Panel 7) Restart your computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
