unable to uninstall DCUO Live
I have been trying to uninstall DCUO and noticed a program along side DCUO called ''DCUO Live'', I tried to uninstall it and i got a ''c++ runtime error: this application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way'', i've tried uninstalling from the launcher and steam but the dcuo Live program is still in my ''remove programs list'', can anybody help me with a solution?

I've had this happen to me a few times.
- Did you already uninstall it through steam?
- When you try to remove from programs list, does it say that it can't find it or file location?
- Did you restart your PC and try removing it immediately?
- Are there any DCUO game files remaining like in the Steamapps or Documents folders?

This may help:

If all else fails, you may need another program to remove the file by force. I read that CCleaner can do this, but I would look into this more.

No! Not CCleaner! Don't use that *swearing* piece of not good written program lines.
That program is so much more than just a unistaller and stuff you dont want. Other part of that software are able to completely destroy your working computer.
Especially if you dont know a whole lot about how to handle software problems.

Revo Unistaller can I recommend!

this program works pretty well
warns when uninstalling if anything remains
helps you make sure nothing remains

pastwise think i recall revo but not in awhile
iobit has some pretty good tools been using for years

id say give each a try, CCleaner heard of in the past but might be a bit more complex?
and from whats said above might be an avoid

this error exists for all daybreak games from what i know, can remove with thrid party apps like revo uninstaller (the one i used) it is really good in completely wiping out a program and all its files

If you still can't uninstall after all this help, Revo Uninstall will remove any program regardless and everything linked to it's install
