I bought Rails Across America for my little grandson as
he likes trains. It is way too hard for him and he is
not interested. I want to take it off as I do not
personally play any kind of games. I don't want to waste
my space on my computer with games. I've been trying and
trying to Uninstall it and all I get is a message that
the Install Log can't be found.
How can I remove this from my computer?
I can't find anything in the book to help and no address
to contact. I feel like I have been tricked to keep
something on my computer that I don't want. But,
hopefully, those people who know something about
computers can help me or direct me to a place that can
help. This is so frustrating. I just use the computer
to write letters and do not want all this extra stuff.
Thanks so much.

Here's how to uninstall a game when using Add-Remove programs fails:

Step A: Start your computer in Safe Mode by holding down the F8 key.

Step B: Reinstall the game to the same folder it was installed to originally,
and then try to uninstall it again using Add-Remove programs. If
that fails, delete it's folder and any save games in My Documents.

Step C: Install and Run Regcleaner and if it finds any stray registry keys for the
game, delete them: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download460.html
