You might have heard a little bit about this, but my computer has been through a roller coaster from hell as of late. It all started with the installation of a new CPU...Windows locked me out of my files, so I had to use other computers and hard drives in a desperate race to get my computer back and working again.
Well, I've managed to get my hard drive back, and aside from a couple of programs not working (Microsoft Office for instance, but who uses that when there's OpenOffice available, I say), everything's fine. I'm just having a hard time uninstalling components that I cannot use anymore due to all the hard drive changing and stuff like that.
For instance, when I try to uninstall Java, I get an error saying that "The installation source for this product is not available." I'd like to uninstall something cleanly from my computer so I can reinstall it (in this case, Java), because the "Add or Remove Programs" function isn't working for me. Can someone help me with this?
