[SOLVED] Cannot delete some apps after removing HDD

[MelonHusk]

Recently my HDD died and I had to remove it from pc, but there a lot of leftover apps and games that were installeld on that drive and now I cant uninstall them and the error "The system could not find the drive specified" pops up when I try.

Could you recommend some utility to delete those orphaned files, or some other ways to delete them besides the use of additional software?

just delete the shortcut as there is no file at that destination just move to recycle bin and delete.

Yeah, but like those shortcuts in the list of the programms in "Add or remove programs" are still there and connot be deleted. I want to reinstall the apps and games on C drive or on new D drive when it arrives but I feel like those loose files are gonna bite me in the ass eventually.

IObit Uninstaller free version works 10x better than Add or remove programs there are no loose files the drive is dead.
