How can Revo be used to uninstall a product using only its Program Files (86) folder location?
How can Revo be used to uninstall a program using only its C:\Program Files (86)\ folder location?
This program no longer appears within the Programs and Features List or the Programs list on the Windows 10 computer but continues to run.
The only information I have on it is its program folder location within the C:\Program Files (86)\ folder.
Where do I go within the Revo uninstaller program to enter this program path to have this unwanted program completely uninstalled?

I followed Nobus' suggestion and was able to successfully uninstall the program.
I also emailed Revo tech support and it looks like the feature I am looking for is only available in the registered version of the product or during the 30 day demo of the full product:
First and foremost, if you are currently using the free version, we recommend that you use Revo Uninstaller Pro, as it has improved scanning algorithms and more features in general.
