Pop Tray.

[NoshowJones]

I was trying to install Pop Tray email notifier, then decided against it. I have deleted everything to do with it.

Now a PING sound with a message appearing on my screen keeps popping up every few mins and I have to click on OK.

It reads "access violation at address 00416950".

Anyone know how I can stop it?

System Restore to a point before you started the install??

If System restore does not work for you use a free little program called "Download Everything" 

 

Run the program and search for and delete anything connected with  "Pop Tray"  

 

Got rid of a few pesky leftovers for me in the past.

 

Everything

 

There is a free extension "Checker Plus for Gmail" that works for both Edge and chrome.

As a work around, start Task Manager and see if you can see any likely running process such as Pop Tray.exe or notifier.exe etc.
If you can find it, R-click it and select 'Open File Location' and rename it to something else eg Pop Tray_old.exe

Ops! ref to my earlier post I called the program "Download Everything"   should have been "Search Everything"  Solly!  

 

The link is the same:- Search Everything

Thank you all for your help, I shut the computer down then restarted, that seems to have done the trick.

Sounds like maybe the uninstall couldn't complete until reboot because a file was in use and locked.

Basic number one trouble shooting:- 

 

First try a reboot.

And that is the first solution to many PC problems.

Step number 2 ask Uncle Google, no need to re-invent the wheel.
