Windows 7 Uninstaller fails

I'd like to uninstall media server and I cannot.  This is a problem.

 

I go to start>control panel>programs and features>right click uninstall.  It says "MediaBrowser.Uninstaller stopped working".  Happens for both Emby Server and Media Browser Server in my program list.

 

Kind of odd that even though the uninstaller failed it still set a task with the action to launch pcalua.exe - a on appdata/roaming/mediabrowser-server/system/mediabrowser.uninstaller.exe -c server.  Rebooting does not magically clean anything up though.  I can run it through the task scheduler but still fails.

Just delete your %appdata%/MediaBrowser-Server directory. Then it Programs and Features control panel should say they are already uninstalled and remove their entries from the list. You might want to delete the background service entries in the registry as well. Just use regedit to search for Emby and delete the keys.

This should be fixed with the next release.
