How do you uninstall the perfectly clear plugin in paint shop pro 2018? There is no uninstall in the control panel.

In fact it is there in Control Panel > Programs and Features, but under A for Athentech, the company that makes it.

That's odd. I too have Windows 7 on a 64-bit system and it shows in the Control Panel under A for Athentech as Ken stated. Maybe something went wrong when you installed it. You could try reinstalling it and then check to see if it shows up in the Control Panel.

I just tried that with the file that I downloaded and it still isn't in the add/remove programs. I tried installing the perfectly clear with the install file Corel sent on a CD. It states that Paint shop pro 2018 ultimate must be installed first. It is installed. I tried removing it from the preferences in Paint shop pro and it still shows up.

I installed the essentials from athentech's site and now it shows in the control panel remove programs. The only thing is that now it says you have to purchase and activate it. The installer from Corel's download and backup disk both do not install properly. I purchased perfectly clear complete but I shouldn't of had too. I'm sort of ticked with Corel.

Back to basics when you have a problem that others do not seem to have. Uninstall any Athentech programs you have installed . Uninstall PSP 2018. Run the cleanup tool from here:
http://forum.corel.com/EN/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=52337

Then if you can download the freshest install of PSP 2018 (if you can still use the download link).
Install that using the recommended settings ( C drive and both 32 and 64 bit versions) and if the version number (Help > About) is not 20.2, then download and install the Update 1 from the Corel site (delete any other downloaded versions of that in case they are the corrupted ones).
Your original post asked about uninstalling the Perfectly clear Plugin. Is this because you don't want it or it is not working properly , want to remove and reinstall?

I've already done all of that. I was trying to uninstall perfectly clear so I could uninstall paintshop pro 2018 that got the bad update number 1. After uninstalling and cleaning I did a fresh install from the download link. It already had the update in it this time. The perfectly clear se plugin from corel still didn't show in the control panel after reinstalling. Anthentech's did. Something is wrong with the file from Corel. And no I am not a newbie. I build my own computers.
