If you have the original installation media, a method that often works when an uninstaller has become corrupted is to reinstall the application and then uninstall it.

Otherwise, you might try free
Revo Uninstaller or see
http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/comphelp/msg081415488395.html (unfortunately, the link to the manual uninstall directions doesn't work; support for Broderbund software has been taken over by Encore.com; the search facility there leaves something to
be desired; you can, however, ask for help in an Encore forum at
http://forums.encoreusa.com/).


How to contact Tech Support (it's not clear if any versions of Printmaster are still supported; I'd try the telephone support rather than web-based):

The following (below the line of *************) is from a post by a forum moderator at the Encore support forums.  I haven't linked to it because earlier in the post there is a suggestion to use a registry cleaner as part of the manual uninstall.  I definitely
do NOT recommend that you use any registry cleaner.
*************************************************************************************************************
NOTE: This message does not apply to either PrintMaster 2.0 or Print Shop 2.0.

Broderbund programs, including (but not limited to) Print Shop, PrintMaster, Creating Keepsakes Scrapbook Designer and Calendar Creator, are installed in the Program Files folder where most software is installed.
However, many Broderbund programs will also
install files and folders in other locations on the hard drive.


When one of those Broderbund programs is uninstalled because it is suspected that that installation is corrupt, it is always a good idea to make sure to manually delete all files and folders stored on the hard drive which are not automatically removed during
a normal uninstall - to make sure that all corruption is removed before the program is reinstalled.

Following are the paths to additional folders where Broderbund software is commonly installed:

WinXP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Broderbund Software\Print
and

C:\Documents and Settings\[your-username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Broderbund Software\Print
WinVista/Win 7: C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund Software\Print
and

C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund Software\Print\
and

C:\ProgramData\Broderbund Software\Print

**********

PrintMaster Address Books can be accessed from and saved to ONLY the BOOKS folder which is a subfolder of the Print folders displayed below (PrintMaster Address Books cannot be accessed from or saved to the Documents folder)

WinXP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Broderbund Software\Print

WinVista/Win 7:C:\ProgramData\Broderbund Software\Print and C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund Software\Print

(As can be seen, when PrintMaster Address Books are saved on WinVista and Windows 7, they are saved into two folders.)

For example, the Address Books for PrintMaster 18 would be saved to these folders on a WinVista or Windows 7 computer

C:\ProgramData\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

C:\Users\All Users\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\Books

To make sure that saved Address Books are not removed during the uninstall process, they should be backed up before PrintMaster is uninstalled.
When those Address Books are restored, it will be necessary to restore those Address Books back to the same two folders
- because an Address Book will not be displayed in the File | Open list if it is not in both folders.

Print Shop Address Books can easily be saved to the Documents folder.
So, if you have saved your Address Books to the Documents folder, it is not necessary to back up those Address Books before uninstalling Print Shop.

**********

The files which control the Project Gallery and the Art Gallery are stored in the ART & PROJECTS folders which are subfolders of this Print folder

WinXP: C:\Documents and Settings\[your-username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Broderbund Software\Print

WinVista/Win 7:C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund Software\Print\

For example, the ART & PROJECTS folders for PrintMaster 18 would be found in this folder on a WinVista or Windows7 computer

C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Broderbund Software\Print\PrintMaster\18.0\PROJECTS

Since those files can easily become corrupt if the video card driver is outdated or corrupt, the folder for the program that was uninstalled (in this case, the 18.0 folder) should be deleted before the program is reinstalled.
It is completely safe to delete
the PrintMaster folder - because a fresh install of that 18.0 folder will be performed when PrintMaster is uninstalled.

If there is only one version of PrintMaster installed on the computer, the PrintMaster folder in this example can also be safely deleted.

**********

It is not absolutely necessary to delete the Adbook.exe file which controls the PrintMaster Address Book program.
But, it is always a good idea to know that that file is installed in this folder

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Broderbund\UMM
