Have been having problems with Facebook so decided to uninstall. I am unable to locate either Facebook or the "Facebook Plugin" which Facebook Help tells me to look for. I go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall Program butthere is nothing there relating to Facebook. Any ideas? Thanks!

If you are unable to locate Facebook or the Facebook Plugin in the Control Panel's Programs and Features list for uninstallation, there are a few other ways you can try to uninstall Facebook from your system. Here are some alternative methods you can consider:
  1. Use the Settings App in Windows 10/11:
    • Open the Settings app by pressing Windows key + I.
    • Go to "Apps" or "Apps & features" section.
    • Search for Facebook in the list of installed apps and click on it.
    • Select "Uninstall" to remove Facebook from your system.
    []Use PowerShell:
    • Open PowerShell with administrative rights. You can do this by searching for "PowerShell" in the Start menu, right-clicking on it, and selecting "Run as...

    • Run the following command to uninstall an app:
      Code:
      powershell Get-AppxPackage -allusers *facebook* | Remove-AppxPackage
    • This command will search for any Facebook-related packages and uninstall them.

    ]Manually Delete Facebook Folder:
    • Sometimes, the uninstaller may not remove all components of an application. You can try manually deleting the Facebook folder.
    • Go to C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86) and look for a folder named "Facebook." Delete this folder if it exists.
  2. Third-Party Uninstaller:
    • If the above methods do not work, you can also use a third-party uninstaller tool like Revo Uninstaller to help remove Facebook completely from your system. Try these methods to uninstall Facebook and the Facebook Plugin from your computer. Let me know if you need further assistance!
