Uninstalling a Reminder Software

Hello everyone,

I downloaded a software from the internet (01net) for my laptop running Windows 8, it's a small sticky notes software that launches at startup and displays in the launch area at the bottom right of the screen. Since then, I uninstalled it via the uninstall function in its Start menu directory. Problem: it still appears in the taskbar to the right, next to the clock, and in the startup programs menu in the control panel (but we can't disable the launch), but it is not in the Start menu, nor in the hard drive directory.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

    Hello Thavany

    What would I do?!

    - Check if the software still exists in the registry?!

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE_\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

    /!\/!\ Remember to create a backup of the registry with Erunt before making any changes!

    - There is a very useful software for uninstalling programs...:
    Revo Uninstaller free version https://www.revouninstaller.com/revo-uninstaller-free-download/

    If others have a simpler or more effective solution?

    Hoping this can help you.

    Best regards
