Windows – can’t uninstall Python 3.6 on windows 10

pythonuninstallwindowswindows 10

I installed python 3.6.2 recently on my windows 10 machine, but I cannot seem to uninstall it at all

The error I get is:

enter image description here

No python 3.6 installation was detected

then

0x800070643 Fatal error during installation

Things I tried

  • c:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python > delete folder, app still shows up
  • Revo uninstaller > uninstall python 3.6
  • Uninstall app normally through "add or remove" programs
  • Delete Python36 environmental path
  • Some combinastion of repair+modify and then uninstall… no go

How do I fix this?

I haven't tried doing any registry edits or using restore points yet though
