Hi!

I try to uninstall  Windows Live Essentials by running

"c:\program files (x86)\windows live\installer\wlarp.exe" /cleanup:all /q

but I found out that wlarp.exe doesn't exit on my PC

I tried to download it from this below links, that I found in this forum, but this file doesn't exit, too http://g.live.com/1rewlive4arp/wlarp.exe

Where can I get it?

If you need more detailed scenario of my issue:

1. I tried to install Movie Maker from http://www.windows-movie-maker.org/ - I was sure that it is official site for it. But it seems not official :( Movie Maker worked ok, but they are not free, when I tried to save my movie

2. I uninstall it and installed WLE form the Microsoft site.

3. But I can't open it - I get "the directory name is invalid"

4. All attemps t resolved it failed - we tried to clean cash, to restart PC and re-install and etc

5. After all this manipulation I found out that I have WLE on my PC in Programs Files, but can't uninstall it from the Control Panel (this program is not presented there) or by cmd command as I described above.

if you have any other suggestion how to resolve this issue - I'll be glad

Regards,

Julia

    Julia, I had the exact same problem and found a helpful link on the answers.microsoft site see below:

    WORKING LINK FOR wlarp.exe

    I noticed that the link provided by Microsoft no longer works, so I uploaded the file found under my Windows Live Essentials’ install folder.

    You can download it from here:

    Windows Live Essentials 2012 Uninstaller – wlarp.exe : https://1drv.ms/u/s!Aqm6bcMuR-fA8y5M1xoEto-VbP8W
