Miscellaneous

When I started a new job, I inherited a wonderful (yes, that's sarcasm) PC fully loaded with some truly outstanding (yep, there it is again) tools and utilities. One of these was Microsoft's Alt-Tab Switcher Powertoy. I hate it!!! It's slow and doesn't always work as expected. Anyway, I went to Add/Remove Programs, but there was no uninstall link. I tried to browse thru the Program Files and Windows directories, but didn't see anything there, either. I searched the web, but still couldn't find a way to get rid of it. Finally, I figured I'd try to reinstall it. Turns out that the MSI file gets placed in the C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations directory. Just run that, choose "Remove," then reboot, and you should be good-to-go!
