    Cannot uninstall trial Expression Web 3

    I have Windows 7. I downloaded the trial of Expression Web 3 and then decided to purchase. I have the upgrade version but after uninstalling and reinstalling, it still thinks I have the trial version and is still counting down. It will not accept the Product Key. I have tried Windows Install Cleanup but with no change.

    The trial version of Expression Web 3, is not compactable with windows 7, the files are located at C:\program files (x86) Or you can remove it using windows explorer, browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Source Engine. Right click on OSE.EXE and rename it to something like zzOSE.EXE, then try to install purchase version of Expression Web 3.

    Thanks for the help. The fix turns out to be to disable the User Account Control on Windows 7. Once that's done, it accepts the new Product Key.

    There is no need to uninstall the trial version of Expression Web 3. You just have to enter the product key which will automatically delete the time limit and activate your Expression Web 3.

    To remove trial Expression web3, go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Source Engine. Locate the OSE.EXE and rename it like prwOSE.EXE and run uninstall process. You can use unlocker program to delete the program files then registry clean up to delete values present in a registry.
