installed return to castle wolfenstein. at 93% the install froze forcing me to hard boot my system. now i have the folder in my programs file taking up space. when i try to uninstall it i receive an error saying cannot read install log. i have tried uninstalling it using both the add/remove menu in control panel and using the uninstaller included in the software. and i hate to say it but i forgot the trick of manually removing an item from the add/remove menu.

Try deleting the game folder and then uninstall it from Add/Remove programs. If you're lucky the system will say that it can't find the uninstaller and ask you if you want to remove the add/remove entry.

If not then the registry key where these are stored is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

PS: If it's a MSI based installer it's probably a bit more complicated to get rid of it but I suspect that Castle Wolfenstein it's an old game?
