I am sorry to hear you are still receiving a notification to upgrade your RealPlayer. OK, now for the reply from Realplayer after I emailed them complaining about their pop-up and intrusion of my PC, below is their reply on how to un-install Realplayer, it is a very long winded process and appears to be set out to ensure it takes a long time to discourage people from un-installing, enough said, here is is: I stated 'Do not want your player, your pop-up or your spyware, go away and stay away from me'.A window will pop-up saying sorry you are leaving please give reason why.A window should po-up with 3 tick boxes and only one ticked.Go to Windows Control Panel, Remove Program option.Call up task manager and again kill all.Tick to overwrite the current installation.Do not bother to register with Realplayer.Download Realplayer and install, this time untick all boxes, at time of writing there is a button for further options, go there and untick all boxes again.Call up task manager, in processes you will see realsched.exe, kill it.Even after this removal of the Realplayer program, the pop-up kept coming.A couple of days and up came the pop-up asking me if I wanted to upgrade for x$, by this time I had had enough, I uninstalled it using Windows Programs Remove program via control panel.When I started Realplayer up came the pop-up box asking if I wanted to upgrade for x$, I chose to use Windows Media Player.The pop-up asking if you want to upgrade for x$, still trusting I tick a box that implied do not bother me with this message again.The install completed, then my problems started. Well of course I wanted Realplayer updated when an upgrade was available. The browsers I used crashed, Firefox/Chrome, within the recovery I got a pop-up asking if I wanted to install Realplayer, I decided now was the time as anything not Microsoft always appeals to me.įrom the download I opened the file, as the installation questions popped up I was careful to un -tick any advertising type boxes, there was one which I left, get informed of updates. Due to this lack of negative reviews somehow, over the years I had come to believe that Realplayer was better than Windows Media Player. Realplayer is a program which I knew had been around for a long time, I had heard nothing negative about it. ![]()
