I was going to uninstall it and replace it with Quicktime
Alternative 2.40, because of the recent foisting of Safari
on Windows users through the Apple Software Update popup,
but when I went to remove it in Add/Remove Programs, not
only was it still there, but it put QTTask back in Startup.

After exiting it and then removing it using MSConfig,
I had to manually remove Quicktime and its folder, then use
CCleaner and a few registry cleaners to get rid of the 478
entries in the Registry it left behind.

In short, the uninstaller appears to be broken.

Still playing media files on your machine and still listed in A/R Programs, or just some left-over files laying around that need to be deleted?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20205883 Sat, 22 Mar 2008 00:50:43 EDT [Need Info] quicktime http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20205850 robertfl : How do you remove quicktime software?
