Here is the solution
There’s an easy way, when password prompt opens, run task manager and END
task called MSIEXEC that runs under your user account (not system). The password
go away and uninstall continues

Sorry there is no such a registry antry for 11.0.3001 on Vista. Does anyone has any idea where it is hidden?

I discovered this myself today. resetting the password in the registry to the value recommended in several fora (to make it = ’symantec’) didn’t work, but this trick did!

I tried this but what if the value in the useVPuninstallpassword key already set to 0 instead of 1. Because the instruction is change the key value from 1 to 0.

Thanks, worked like a charm! I know the password is symantec but for some reason, possibly virus, it didn’t work. Thanks again!
