Completely uninstall VNC

Solved

Hello,

While browsing through the programs on my PC, I recently came across VNC. The installation is relatively recent, and I don't remember installing this program. Anyway, I went through CCleaner and removed it, but an .exe file remains: "uvnc_service," and that one, I can't get rid of because it's supposedly already open somewhere...
Anyway, what worries me most is... where does this program come from? Is it possible that it was installed alongside another program I installed? I'm in a paranoid mode, imagining the FBI spying on all my actions with VNC, so could someone reassure me and/or try to help me understand better? :P

Thanks! :)

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 10.0.2

    Hello, to remove VNC try going to Start, Control Panel, and uninstall a program. Look for VNC in the list, click on it, and then click on Uninstall at the top.

    He doesn't appear in the list, I already deleted the program itself, only the .exe file (UltraVNC Addons) remains :/

    Go to your C drive and then search for VNC and delete the VNC folder.

    Good evening Banane_neurasthénique,
    It's possible that the uninstallation left some traces, the simplest thing to do, in my opinion, is to download and install this software, CLICK, restart the computer in safe mode, and use it.
    See you later

    Hello,
    If you understand a bit of English, a satisfactory answer should be found here: http://www.ehow.com/how_7409223_uninstall-vnc-service.html
    However, I don't know if it wouldn't be better to do it from your administrator session.
    Best regards.

      I tried to uninstall it manually as explained in your link, but when I press Enter, I get "Access Denied" appearing...
