It might be a process that is running. Maybe try to end that process in the Task Manager, then uninstall again.kenmay09how can i delete the DEFWATCH.EXE????? -

Ashraf HZIn that case, its time to use an unlocker sofware!
Download this-> #-Link-Snipped-#
Then right click on that defwatch file to unlock it ๐
If its not explicitly listed in the processes, there might be other instances that depend on it. You can eventually find out using other software, but it might take a while. I hope the unlocker software is sufficient! -
kenmay09its deleted already... thank you a lot for the help

Ashraf HZOh sorry, I misread your post! No idea how.. Haha
