Del its folder in Program File, or whenever you installed to.

You can also use Win Clean Up Utility

There should be an uninstall program that came with the printer software. That being said you may be able to install the English version without uninstalling the non-english version first.

open program files in Windows
Delete the program
Run search and delete the traces
Finally,empty your Recycle Bin

I can only guess that if you download the one in English it would overwrite the one of a different language.

You must use Add and Remove programs to uninstall this program or you will leave some of the old files on your PC.

NEVER delete a program’s folder or you will be chasing down stray files to delete and it is not easy to d that. You can delete the folder if it stays after you use Add and Remove programs.

If you have Vista, go to Control Panel
Under Programs click on Uninstall a program

If you know what programs are associated with this software you could end task in task manager before uninstalling. You could also try to uninstalling it in safe mode, then find all files & folders for the program & delete them.

Good luck.

its an amazing uninstaller. it unistalls the program completly and then runs a system scan to romove any files or folders left behind

i had programs on my computer that would never uninstall and then it was featured on cnet and i downloaded it.

it will also clean up junk files and give you the option of un-revoverable deleats, incase you have sensitive files that you do not want to be recovered.

Try installing the English version. Maybe the computer will tell you that there is another version that is already installed and you can try to fix it that way. Otherwise, you can visit the HP Support Forums at the provided address or contact Customer Service at.

CCleaner should be able to do this for you. If you just delete the folder, you aren’t deleting the registry entry for the program you are deleting. In order to delete the whole program you would need to delete registry entries as well.

A program I installed, not long ago, didn’t come with an uninstall file. I found CCleaner and it was able to uninstall the program for me.

Or you can always go to the Hp support forums and find yourself a better answer You can even ask the same question over there as well with a fairly similar setup.

1 was there any menu created in the allprograms on start menu ? most progs come with a uninstall shortcut even if foreign its still easy to recognise , but as its maybe only the drivers it may not…..
#2 As u cannot remove using the “add remove programs” from control panel means the install didnt complete and is missing the uninstall files or its a trojan.
#3 if u can try going into control panel > System > hardware > device manager > find your printer and uninstall the hardware completely , reconnect and try new software drivers/program (not 100% on that)
#4Is a risky method so be careful what u do , if u cannot totally delete the software , what u can do is make the computer think that its not there , if u click start menu and then “Run” type “regedit” this will open your computers registry directory, once there u r looking for “HK_local machine” (spelling not exact cant recall off top of head) then “software” inside here u find the exact name of the company that made the software and find the registry entry for that software and delete it, restart your computer and your comp will never know that it was even there. ( Be Warned Screwing with registry can screw up computer v easily so make 100% its the right one and dont change anything that ure not sure of , good luck

… download ccleaner, you can uninstall programs from there.
and if that dosent work dont use answers like
“delete the files”
because they are still in your computer (registry) and eventually it ruins your cpu
