uninstall 0.99.7 for Windows

0

I want to uninstall 0.99.7 in order to install the latest Wireshark. But it refuses to uninstall, saying: "Please note: tshark.exe could not be removed, it's probably in use!" [sic]

I just booted up; how did it come to be in use?

The platform is Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2.

Use your process explorer to see if it really is.

I just retrieved and ran Process Explorer. (Thanks for the referral, it looks like a good thing to have.) It doesn't look like any process with a name anything like "shark" is running.
