I installed the Microsoft Visual Studio Foundation Server plug-in

(

  Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server plug-in for Eclipse10.0.0.201003261741com.microsoft.tfs.client.eclipse.feature.feature.groupMicrosoft

)

I'm running windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1 64-bit. The CFBuilder version is shown in the image below.

and now want to install a different full version of the plug-in but cannot do that without uninstalling this one first. However, I have been unable to Uninstall the plug-in no matter what I have tried. The "easy" way using the uninstall button is not available to ( see image below). I have tried numerous suggestions for manual uninstall but the plug-in will not go away, and thus prevents me from installing the newer version. Upgrading is not allowed. I have been using "Run As Administrator" etc to make sure I have adequate permissions.

At this point I am feeling stumped and may just have to uninstall CFBuilder and start over unless someone can suggest something new to try.

Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions that can be offered.

Did you ever find an answer to this?

I never was able to uninstall it. I solved the problem by basically abandoning the CFBuilder install. Instead I just installed eclipse and then installed cfbuilder as a plug-in along with the correct TFS plugin. That works great!

Really? Does it use the ColdFusion Builder interface, or did you have to learn a new interface then?  I'm pretty used to CFB, would hate to have to stop and re-learn a new IDE.
