How to Remove Pokki?

I just bought a new Toshiba laptop after spending the last 8 years as a Mac user. The first thing I did was to go in and uninstall all the bloatware that came pre-installed on the laptop. I uninstalled Pokki but there is still an entry that appears in File Explorer that says "Add To Pokki Menu". I ran regedit and deleted the entries related to Pokki but this line still appear in File Explorer. How can I get rid of it? Thanks loads.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Possibly may need to search for it under Apps as well to remove it? Windows 8 has this annoying dual-feature with some installs where they appear twice (uninstall under Control Panel, but there might be an App version). Pokki is harmless though so if you can't remove it it'll just be there as an annoying, but non-intrusive entry.

How to completely remove POKKI

Hi Does anyone know how to totally remove POKKI? Just remove it from add/remove on Windows 8, but when I create a new account it will get reinstall. Thank

westread,
What anti-virus and firewall are you using? Some of them will lock your homepage, and some remember it long enough so that if you disable them, they will change it back once you reboot!
Also take a look at this: http://www.eightforums.com/browsers-mail/37881-internet-explorer-cannot-change-default-home-page.html
I had to do some registry editing to reset mine on my most recent computer.

How to permanently remove Pokki from a system image

QuestionI have configured the base install of our E440/E540 to our standards with one exception.
Despite my efforts, each time a new user signs into a machine, Pokki is loaded up and added to the taskbar.
I've uninstalled it. I've combed through every file/folder for reference to Pokki. I've use the uninstaller from their site. I've combed through the registry and removed every entry. These efforts have not produced the desired result of removing Pokki entirely. How can I do this?
AnswerPokki can be removed through a two step process using a Pokki provided clean up tool These steps must be completed in order.
Uninstall Pokki from “Control Panel -> Programs and Features”. It may appear as one or more of the following:
Pokki
Start Menu
Host App Service
Run the cleanup tool “LenovoPreloadUninstall.exe”
Here is the Pokki cleanup tool:
https://download.lenovo.com/lenovo/content/sm/lenovo_preload_uninstall_pokki.exe
Admin note: updated download link.

I'm afraid having an official tool by Lenovo doesn't really inspire confidence. I have no idea who's dropbox account that is. For all I know they could replace the exe with something malicious. Removing Pokki is way harder than it should be. Why won't it just remove using the control panel and why does it recreate every time I setup a new account? I will agree with head4heights that there should be a step by step guide on how to remove this. Come on Lenovo. We all enjoy your hardware and we just want the choice to clean some of this stuff up. Help us out please.

How to remove calendar in ical

I clicked on a link that added a calendar to my ical which has now synced with my Google calendar and added all the events to it as well. Unfortunately, I did not realize that this was going to add every single instance (multiple events per day) to all my calendars.
I'd like to reverse this action but there is not easy way to do this in ical it seems. I cannot "delete" the calendar because it does not appear in the list of subscribed calendars in ical.
I subscribed to two calendars this way and I'd like to remove them both. I also have to now deal with how to remove hundreds of entries in my Google calendar....and it seems there is no batch delete there either unless I pay for a third party program....arrrgh
If anyone can shed some light on this I'd be most grateful.

Thanks for your reply. I "subscribed" to a couple of motorsports calendars in iCal by visiting a direct link on the Apple website like this one: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/2011motogpworldchampionshipcalen darprovisional_gpticketltd.html
This adds the events contained in this calendar directly to iCal and I can't for the life of me find a way to "unsubscribe" or eliminate these entries short of erasing them manually one by one. Unfortunately, there are many of them.
If you know how I may go about doing this in an efficient manner, please let me know!

Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
I tried to uninstall the application but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
Thanks for your help.

How to remove folder and leaf icons from a tree

Hi,
I know how to remove when we have a mx component i.e.,
<mx:Tree folderOpenIcon={null} ...../> similarly for
closed and default leaf icon.
But how do i achieve this from an action script like say i
have,
var tree:Tree = new Tree();
tree.setFolderOpenIcon(null); ///is there something like this
or any other alternative.
Please advice.
Thanks,

the folderOpenIcon is a style so you have to set it with the

try:

Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port.

Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port...
Someone told me just to remove the chip in clicking it to the trash can and voilá - it would be done. But as I did so, on the screen appeared a text which let me know, that that way had been the wrong one...
I should have clicked Finder plus something.... which I do not now remember but which was then not found behind the Finder.
So please would someone be so kind and tell me, where I can find explanations for the most simple functions. The manual I got does not include a clue.
Thank you!

First make sure that no application is using or has open any files on the disk. Then:
Click and drag the disk icon on the desktop to the trash. Wait for the system to recognize the action, and the icon should disappear from the desktop. It is then safe to remove the device.
Alternatively, you can secondary click on the disk icon, and then primary click "Eject (name of disk)". Wait for the icon to disappear off the desktop, and then it is safe to remove the drive.
Here is a detailed help document on the subject.
