I can't uninstall lightburn

[ValterCapo (Valter)]

Hello everyone,

I have a laser called Laser Pecker 4. It comes with very poor factory software, and I wanted to use LightBurn. I installed it a month ago but have been unable to get it to work. The problem I have is that I tried to uninstall LightBurn to reinstall it using the software CCleaner. I didn’t realize that LightBurn was open and proceeded to uninstall it. CCleaner confirmed that LightBurn had been uninstalled, but in reality, LB is still functioning. The issue is that CCleaner now can’t find the LightBurn software to uninstall it, and if I go to Start/Settings/Applications, it also appears as if it were not installed on my PC. I have no idea what to do. Please help me"
I have a generic PC with Windows 11.
Thank you.

Tap the windows key (or window box in the task bar) and type “control panel” there should be a uninstall program there.

As an aside - CCleaner is categorized as PUA - Potentially Unwanted Application. It’s more adware than software. https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/10l2zjp/is_ccleaner_malware/

In this case, the easiest way to do this would be to reinstall LightBurn, which will install it over top of the existing install, but put the uninstall subroutines back into your Windows system. Then, you’ll be able to uninstall it and remove it all from your computer. CCleaner simply removed the uninstall routines from Windows, but did not actually uninstall the application.
