I am trying to clean up my hard drive a bit and found a long-expired
version of protel dxp.

I cannot find an "unwise.exe" file in any of the directories. And when
I try to use the Windows "Add/Remove Program" feature, there is no
button to remove the application.

I did a search for this topic, but i can't seem to find anyone else
having problems uninstalling protel's dxp from his/her computer.

The effective way to get rid of it at this point
is to reinstall it thru Add/Remove Programs, then uninstall it.
You could use something like this and post your results:

Thanks Jeff, but I already just deleted the folder, all 626MB of it. in
fact, i've been uninstalling a lot of stuff, so i can track what i
really need, and then one day, just re-install windoze fresh.

I did try downloading some utilities for fixing the registry, but none
of them even detect the Protel demo application. So i figured since the
registry doesn't see it, then what harm would it be to just delete it,
then maybe some registry fixer may now see the hidden remnants of an
app that isn't there anymore, and fix that. Oh well! All that matters
is that the rest of the computer still works.
