Last week, I was uninstalling an Epson printer driver for the 830U. I found that there was an item called Epson Printer Software in add or remove program in the Control panel. When I clicked on the "Change/Remove" from right side of it then it shows me a popup dialog box with along with the "Printer Model" tab and it was highlighted the "Epson Stylus Photo 830U Series". I clicked OK on that and it says that the uninstallation is completed successfully but it does not uninstall anything. I can see that in the list again. If I do that again then this again gives me the same result.
I searched for this on internet and found that if I delete all the registry entries with the word "Epson" then it can solve the issue. Therefore I tried the same but to my bad luck; I am not able to delete many registry entries. Whenever I try to delete that then it shows me an error message which says ""Cannot delete EPSONStylus_Photo_830U. Error while deleting key.” Here are the key that I am not able to delete:
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\USBPRINT\EPSONStylus_Photo_830==ADU
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Enum\USBPRINT\EPSONStylus_Photo_830==ADU
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USBPRINT\EPSONStylus_Photo==AD_830U
One of my friends, suggested me to use the Driver cleaner which can solve the issue. I tried that also but was not helpful to me. I am very frustrated because of this. If you know that why this is happening to me or how can I solve the issue then please post your suggestion. I will be really thankful to all of you for your suggestions.
