Unable to uninstall Adobe Air

Question

I am not een sure how it was installed in the first place.

Do I need it? Is it necessary for me to be able to use Flash?

I don't have Acrobat on my system.

I am getting a pop up every few hours on my computer.

It says:

"this application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. Please download the lastest version of the runtime from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the application author for an updated version."

Microsoft Fixit would not work either.

It sounds like something on your system is requires AIR to be installed. Can you install AIR to see if this error goes away?

get.adobe.com/air

If that fixes the error, the next thing I'd try is to start the uninstall process for AIR. At the start of this process, a dialog will appear letting you know what applications rely on AIR. You should see the culprit of this error listed. At that point, you can decide if AIR is required on your system and if not, you can then uninstall the application and the AIR runtime.
