How Do I Uninstall Dreamweaver?

I want to uninstall a CS5 version of Dreamweaver, plus other Adobe apps that I no longer need.

The uninstaller app wants me to quit Safari and three other apps (SafariBookmarksS, SafariCloudHistory, and SafariNotiviati) that I don't have (or can't find). And it won't continue until I quit these apps.

In addition, I want get rid of CS5Service Manager (which is a major nuisance).

So what can I do?

Thanks for your help.

PS - I spent almost an hour today trying to find a solution.

    Is this a Mac version or windows version?  I know with the Mac version, all Macs have Safari and if the processes are running the DW uninstaller will not run because some of the web pieces of DW are connected through Safari.  If Safari is stuck open can you force quit the app?  Or have you tried restarting your computer to see if that helps force quit the app?

    If you are still having issues, you can run the CC Cleaner tool ( https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html​ ).  However, I would be more concerned if you have an issue with Safari as that is tied to the OS and per the Apple KB article, there is no way to re-install short of using a time machine backup or re-installing OSX ( Update or reinstall Safari for your computer - Apple Support​ ).
