I'm having a problem trying to uninstall weather today. Whenever I go to remove programs I get an error message that says that uninstall was unsuccessful because a dll file was in use or set in read only mode. Now I've check and it's not read only anymore. But it still won't uninstall. Even after a reset. Is there perhaps a registery key that I can delete to prevent it from loading up so I can uninstall it?

Rename the dll and do a soft reset.
Now you can uninstall the program and delete the renamed dll.
If you don't see the dll in file explorer tap and hold on a free space in explorer and chose "view all files"

Try out enough programs and those steps become like second nature...

Another way to do it is to go to the options page for weatherToday, select the uninstall/upgrade tab and then tap the uninstall button.
