    I would like to remove Asus WebStorage from my machine. It is listed in my startup list but it is not in Programs & Features. I realize I could remove the check mark beside or probably do a regedit but is there some way to just uninstall it?

    I think I did that shortly after I got my machine. The folder is there but there is nothing in it. I wonder if it was a botched uninstall.

    yeah, that can happen. i would just re-install from the cd then uninstall. it should recreate the uninstall for you.

    No, I wouldn't say it was useless, some might find it handy. I had removed it though and there was still a reference to it in the start up list.

    I went into the registry and removed it completely now though. For whatever reason it did not completely uninstall for me.
