Uninstall lightroom

I can’t uninstall Lightroom - it gets blocked - is it a bug / trojan??

How do I uninstall? 

AI suggests downloading more Adobe trojans (Adobe Clean).

I’m hesitant to have more of these rubbish programs on my device…

I thought Adobe was legit.  Now I see it’s not.

 

HELP.

    Hi ​@NAJORT, If you would like to uninstall Lightroom, you can try the steps in this article: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/manually-remove-lightroom.html. If you feel like you have a corrupted installation and you’re having issues uninstalling, then the Adobe Cleaner Tool is recommended: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/apps/troubleshoot/diagnostics-repair-tools/prepare-to-run-creative-cloud-cleaner-tool.html. I hope this helps! ^CH

    Adobe is a total scam.

    I got a “free 7 day trial”.  I found the software is utter rubbish.

    I tried to cancel in Day 1, then I tried to cancel Day 2.  The cancel buttons just circles endlesslys.  The tick to when Adobe think they’re going to rip me off

    See  you in court.  Scammer Adobe … 

    You think you’re smart.

    But I’ll never use your products again after this dreadful experince - rubbish software, unethical business practice.
