I need to uninstal Microsoft Works from my computer. I am starting a job and the program I will be using does not work with Microsoft Works. I have version 5.0 Works 2000. I went to add/remove programs but when I click on that it wants to install Works instead of remove it, it's already installed on my computer. I called Microsoft but they will not help me, they tell me Works 2000 is obsolete and they offer no technical help. Does anyone know how I can remove Works from my computer? I have an emachines 700id with Windows millenium.
Thank you,
Donna

you can delete it manually by going to it's installed location and delete it and delete from all programs menue then add/remove and it should say something like "can't locate, would like t remove from list"\i've done it once and worked.
