              Qoute 1 :it's a calorie count software called "DietPower"

              Qoute 2 : yes this is the EXACT error message.

              Qoute 3 : the EXACT startup error message is "Runtime error in install: Access voilation at address 0046FCEF in module 'DietPowerSetup.exe'. Read of address 000001B4

              again...it was after a System Restore

              So you cannot uninstall it?

              I suggest reinstalling it and then trying to uninstall again (possible some of its program files are missing)

                  the program work with an installer called InstallAware Wizard, when I tried to install the software again that installer gave me an error message "Runtime error in setup script:
                  Line 14: Attempting to get value of undefined variable UPDATE_CONFIGURED"

                    Download Revo Uninstaller
                    • Go in to Revo, right click what you want to uninstall and choose Uninstall.
                    • Next choose Advanced Mode
                    • This will launch the programs built in uninstaller and go through the normal uninstall process.
                    If you get the error just exit out of it and continue with the instructions. Revo will search for the programs files and then let you remove them.
                    • Once complete: In Revo Uninstaller click Next and Revo will scan the registry for leftovers.
                      • This scan can take several seconds.
                    • Once the results are shown look at each one to ensure they are all related to the program that was uninstalled.
                    • Choose Select All then click Delete
                    • Click Next and Revo will scan for any files or folders that were not removed.
                    • If any files/folders are found choose Select all > Delete
                    .

                    Restart the computer and it should be gone.
