I have tried a lot to uninstall my NetBeans8.0.2 but were unable. After lot of googling found out a solution. I think I should have and entry in stackoverflow.
Best way to remove Netbeans can be done using following steps
Remove the Netbeans folder from program file
Delete the .nbi(hidden) folder from your C:\User{Current User}
Go to control panel and remove it
It works for me hope it will you too!
Actually Devashish's answer is (partly) correct. If you click link provided by him, you will see that the problem (most likely) is because the install was done by a different user than the user who is uninstalling. (In my case, I added an admin user after the Netbeans install, so all computer changes now pass through the admin user)
Here is what I did to complete the install:
Find a .nbi folder under C:\Users\folder. This folder has .nbi folder under it
Open a command prompt and Go to NetBeans folder which has uninstall.exe
Run this command in the command prompt:
uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\folder\\.nbi
folder is the folder you found in step 1.
This uninstalled for me. Hope it helps you.
Go to C:\Users{User}\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans
Delete "lock" file
Uninstall NetBeans

The comment 5 has easiest solution:
Run Command Prompt in Administrator mode and run the following command :
uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\Administrator.nbi
Does not seem to work in my Win 10 environment. I've also tried
.\uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\Administrator\.nbi
.\uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\Administrator.nbi
'NetBeans 8.0.1'\uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\eric_2\.nbi
.\'NetBeans 8.0.1'\uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\eric_2\.nbi
.\'NetBeans 8.0.1'\uninstall.exe --userdir c:\Users\eric_2.nbi
You get the point. I'm running the WindowsPowerShell as an Administrator.
Someone here must have successfully deleted it even with the error message from the OP. I just have to find out who!

After struggling here and there, I:
Opened c:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\8.2\lock where XXX was the user name. Then, I renamed lock. (The name didn't matter.)
Then, I went back and uninstalled NetBeans.
By the way, I had to delete Java separately.
I was having the exact same problem as above.
Prior to the "symptoms", I installed the application in a newly created folder on the C drive (Not the Program Files default installation directory).
I then changed the name of the folder directory where the executable was installed to enable a third-party script to launch the NetBeans executable as the script required no spaces in the path. In any case, in attempting to uninstall the application again, I got the above error.
I tried running the command as outlined above (namely) running the command prompt with the following:
C:\Netbeans\NetBeans 8.0.2>uninstall.exe --userdir C:\Users\mark.burl.nbi
it launched the uninstall but the same error popped up.
I then undertook the following and the problem was solved for me:
I manually deleted the NetBeans executable folder.
I then reinstalled NetBeans to the default Program Files location.
I then uninstalled NetBeans again no problem.
From PowerShell as administrator I removed all directories here described and finally enter regedit and search for all occurrences of “NetBeans (x86)”. And delete all of them then restart and after that everything is clear
You need to do the following:
Go to C:\Users{User}\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans
Delete the folder named after your Netbean version you want to uninstall
Uninstall NetBeans
Finally i found the reason. i.e while installing NetBeans i used our IT Team Admin credentials (assume user-1 ). But i am uninstalling with my credentials(assume user-2).
So, you can't uninstall. Follow below steps.
1.Go to C:\Program Files\NetBeans 8.0.1> you will find uninstall.exe file.
2.Find who is installed your netbeans for me user-1 (Admin).(You can find all users here C:\Users )
3.Then search for .nbi folder you can get at C:\Users\{user-1}\.nbi
Note: here user-1 is who installed your NetBeans initially.
finally open cmd prompt and run the command below given.
C:\Program Files\NetBeans 8.0.1>uninstall.exe --userdir C:\Users\{user-1}\.nbi
referred from https://stackoverflow.com/a/45387962/10971996
I had the same problem and no matter how hard I tried it won't uninstall until I installed it all over again then uninstalled.
Stop/ pause protection for your anti-virus. Then click on un-install. It will work for sure.

I'm trying to install iCloud on my Windows XP Pro (SP3) PC. Officially it's supported only for Vista and later, but this hack is widely claimed to work:
Open iCloudSetup.exe file and unzip its files including
Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi with Orca.
In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
I tried that promising solution in vain. It seemed to successfully install iCloud, but whenever I try to run it I get
this obscure error
After much fruitless searching I've not found out how to proceed from there and would appreciate advice please.
That trick worked with only the firs versions of iCloud Panel, the v1.0.
For the v2.1 doing the trick the installer ran ok, but when trying to run the iCloud Panel it showed the error you're refering to.
I had some computers running with that older version without any problem.
Try downloading the v1.0 version here:
http://icloud-control-panel-for-windows.uptodown.com/descargar/22412
If you want to try the trick with the v2.1 you have the installer here:
http://icloud-control-panel-for-windows.uptodown.com/
Remember you need to extract the MSI from the exe to do the trick. After running the exe check the %TEMP% folder to get the MSI file.
im planning to build a c++ application based on another c++ package (aria2c) i found over the internet which acts as a ready made wheel for me. I have already installed the package on my machine, but the problem is when i run system("aria2c"); it outputs "command not found", whereas if i run system("git"); (which i have also installed) it will output the git's man page.
calling "brew" also doesnt work whereas git, ls and some other that i tried work.
So can someone explain to me why i cant access that package ? and if there is any solution to it ?
The most common mistake is that the pacakge might be installed for a particular user or at a particular path. Make sure that you have the library/application in your path list
To do that ,i would suggest first finding where the package is installed and then do echo $PATH in terminal to see if its in your path variable
When I tried to remove SublimeLinter on Mac I deleted the package, cache, every part of it in Application Support but it seems I can’t get rid of it in SublimeText 3.
I open ST and I instantly get a message in a new tab from PackageControl telling me that SublimeLinter installed successfully and all the folders and files are created again. Couldn't find any solution online. Thanks in advance for your help!
You need to uninstall it via Package Control. Hit Command ⌘Shift ⇧P to open the Command Palette, then type pcr and select Package Control: Remove Package. Scroll down the list, or type sublimelinter, hit Enter, and restart. You should be all set after that.
This worked for me guys, I deleted the windows app version of Python because there was two paths when I typed "Where Python" on CMD. Then after I deleted Anaconda and reinstalled it, it fixed itself.
I'm restarting the Getting Started with Django tutorial on a newly purchased mac after getting past this step in windows. The tutorial has me working with Vagrant, VM, Venv, and Ubuntu Precise64. I've obviously searched for the names of the files. I've edited the files with vim because I couldn't locate them, but I was always able to easily find the files in windows. I'm sure I'm an idiot, but yes feel free to point that out.
You can simply type
open .
in the terminal to open the current directory in the finder.
Then you should see all your touched files (not the dot files).
OK looks like I didn't cd into the folder I needed to before I created the venv and ran django-admin startproject. Still found nothing at my vagrant home, was it out on the VM somewhere? Went thoug h the steps again correctly and everything is fine, so I guess I messed up the simlink somehow???
I get the following error when i start webstorm in winXP in VMWare Fusion on a macbookpro. Please can some one help
config path \vmware-host\shared Folders.webstorm6\config is invalid
IF you have modified the 'idea.config.path' property please make sure it is correct, otherwise please re-install the IDE.
Seems that ${user.home} property is resolved to \vmware-host\shared Folders, and this path is not accepted by WS. You can try editing bin\idea.properties under the WebStorm installation directory and point the idea.config.path and idea.system.path to specific directories under your user account
I ran into the same problem and was able to work around by moving the .exe file to launch the program to another directory. Turns out, I had shared my desktop with my mac, so the working directory resolved to my physical machine, instead of the virtual one.
When I copied the executable (in my case, intellij idea) to a folder that was not shared between operating sytems then it launched correctly.
