Updating Virus Removal Tool

I downloaded the update for the Virus Removal tool and tried to install it.  It asked me to uninstall the previous version which I did with Revo in safe mode.  When I tied to install the new version I got the message that Windows could not install it, because I had a previous version installed. I erased all that was linked to The Virus removal Tool. And I get the same message when I try to install the new version.  I suppose that there is a registry Key that is left and that gives me that message, but which one.

I run windows 7 home premium on Hp with Intel quad 8200 and 4 Gb RAM.

Any idea how to solve this problem?

  • Sorry for the confusion, RayPor. I just quoted the article because of the concise reference to Fix-It. 

    Go directly to Fix-It, do not collect 200$ (or whatever it is nowadays :smileywink:). Afterwards the install should not "see" a previous one.
