Intellipoint 6.2 will not uninstall

I have Vista Ultimate, fully patched. I have Microsoft Intellipoint 6.2 and
want to uninstall it.

In the control panel when I click on it nothing, same with Intellitype. No
menu for uninstall, repair etc. But it is Intellipoint I want to uninstall.
How do I get rid of Intellipoint?

It's not even listed there on my machine.

Got to Control Panel/MOUSE. Look in Properties. You will have optios
to either disable or uninstall the driver.

You probably deleted the uninstall file, or you do not have the privilege...
or Vista does not allow you to uninstall the MS Mouse software
Just install and uninstall Intellipoint - Vista might gladly find and
reinstall it after reboot assuming you use the MS mouse.

When you select it in "Intellipoint" in Add/Remove, do you see "Change" in
the tool bar? If so, click "Change" and follow the prompts.

Catch 22. Intellipoint will not reinstall because it finds it already there
and says I have to uninstall it.

In control panel/mous/driver I have disabled and deleted the driver 2x and
it comes back....

In Control when I alt click on Intelipoint to uninstall, there is no pop up
menu allowing me select uninstall or change.

I have Intelitype installed as well and have the same observations about
that except I don't want to uninstall it.

Backup your registry.

Search for "intellipoint" and delete every key/entry in both left and
right panel that refers to it.

Restart.

You will find it in "Programs and Features".

Easier way to uninstall Intellipoint / Intellitype ... I used a freeware download , Revo Uninstaller . It worked perfectly, even giving the option to remove the associated registry entries left behind after the uninstall. Intellipoint hides its built in uninstaller, making it difficult to remove. The download is from revouninstaller.com . It might be necessary to re-install Intellipoint after installing Revo , since Revo only works with programs installed in its presence.

I forgot to add that Revo Uninstaller did work perfectly for me , even though Revo was installed after Intellipoint. The Revo website said that Revo only worked with programs installed in its presence ... but that was not the case when I used Revo to uninstall Intellipoint . Intellipoint was uninstalled perfectly even though Revo had not been present during the Intellipoint installation .

Delete the folder.
