w7 to w10 problem

during W7 to W10 upgrade, i get this screen, saying to uninstall Nero Burning Rom, and Windows Media Center.
wThat's fine - but i do not find them in installed programs - so how do i solve this ? - or what software should i uninstall?
it shows however as NERO 6 in start>programs under ahead > Nero; it even has an uninstall folder, but that wants to remove webmatrix - and does not uninstall anything

Installed programs : see attached doc

Hello There

For NERO... Download and run Revo Uninstaller. It will search for all leftover registry keys and all leftover folders and files. Then you can simply delete them.

Agreed: normally, this happens if there are folders on your hard drive that contain Nero setup.

Did you Check using "Programs and Features" in the "Control Panel"?
Your help has saved me hundreds of hours of internet surfing.

The general cleaning tool did nothing;
i used then Revo that found a lot of junk files and removed them
i'll retry upgrading again

@Kimputer  you said "In the Windows Features window, click Media Features to expand "  there was nothing the in the windows feature displayed

Result : nor Nero nor mediacenter is removed….

Hello There

You can search for all files/folders named NERO within any file explorer. Do the same in registry. Then delete them.

the issue was resolved by delereting the Ahead  folder, in programs, and cleaning all nero instances with regseeker
