of Silverlight but it will not let me do this because apparently the old
version is still on the drive.” In order to delete this application, I have
searched for many removal tips on Google. But I failed due to the tips are
unavailable or they are hard to be followed. Fortunately, I find the useful
uninstall tips and now I share them to you.
Why do you try to remove Silverlight from your computer?
Obviously, most of you try to install the
latest version of the program. Or you would like to apply another application
to instead. And Silverlight is corrupted and gets error so that you are unable
to use it anymore. This program eats up a lot of system resources so that your
PC is crashing and freezing. It can not work well.

If there is no Uninstall option, you can go

1) Go to Start and then Control Panel.
2) Open “Add/Remove Programs” and then click
the program you want to delete from the programs’ list.
3) Click Uninstall and follow the
instructions to remove all the files.
After I have done all above, you have to
clean the related registry entries through Registry Editor. It is crucial for
you to remove all Silverlight registry entries. Click Start Menu and then go to
Run. On the pop-up dialogue box, Type “regedit” so that you can open Registry
Editor. Find out the related files under folder like:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ SOFTWARE\Silverlight;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE\Silverlight;
Please delete them all without any hesitation.
In the end, you need to restart your PC as
you see the popup message. And the software will be totally deleted from your
PC.
However, it’s not a good idea that you
would take the risk to manually delete registry entries, for deleting registry
entries by mistake will bring a disaster for you. Thus a small and inconvenient
uninstaller like Perfect Uninstaller
is the best choice to completely uninstall Silverlight other than formatting
your hard drive so that you don't have to put things back from scratch. With
the powerful scan engine, Perfect Uninstaller can fully detect and forcibly
uninstall all registry entries, DLL files as well as its drivers. It only needs
a few clicks and takes a few minutes to completely remove Silverlight from your
PC.
