Cant uninstall older versions of adobe apps, 2022, etc.

I have many duplicates of older Adobe programs installed on my computer, and every time I try and uninstall I get a notification stating, "Specified product is not installed on this machine. Please quit the installer and start over." I can't uninstall any of them at all. Any advice?

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

    check the install location

    then, using the cc desktop app, reinstall the same app to the same location (ie, check the cc desktop app's install location)

    that should restore the uninstaller in the cc desktop app

    then uninstall the app.
