I was working in Illustrator, got a GPU driver needs updating message, updated my driver thru Dell, shut down, but still got the same message when I reopened Illustrator.  So I uninstalled most of CC individually, but Illustrator uninstalled up until the last 1% and wouldn't go completely--even overnight.  So then I downloaded the Adobe Cleaner and uninstalled all of the remaining Adobe parts.  It said uninstallation was complete but with errors.  I'm looking at the log file, but don't know what to do with it.  Can someone please help me with this?
