I'm trying to help my friend make his acer functional again and wanted to start by removing mcafee and norton since he did not uninstall mcafee before norton.
I can view installed programs when I'm in safe mode, but it won't let me delete them there.
When I'm not in safe mode, NO programs appear under add/remove programs.
Does anyone know how I can remove these programs under the current circumstances?

Try using a little cmd trick , that I also used for something .
Start>Run.
Type cmd and press enter.
Type

WMIC

and press enter.
A new line will appear. Now type:

product get name

This will make visible all your program installations.It may take from a few seconds to a few minutes, depending on your pc. Now type:

product Your_program_name_as_speciffied_in_the_list call uninstall

Now type Y for confirmation and enter. Done! :hello:
