Hi. Generally when we see reports of "I cannot uninstall Chromium", it is the result of some unwanted software that has force-installed Chromium on users' machines. If removing it via the "Programs and Features" control panel does not work, you could try finding and deleting the files (possibly in C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Local\Chromium\Application). You could also try running the Chrome Cleanup Tool (https://www.google.com/chrome/cleanup-tool/) to see if it finds any software that it suggests be removed.

Since Google Chrome is not involved, I am closing this issue for now. Please re-open if you are having trouble uninstalling "Google Chrome".

I have deleted the file as you said, then I got the cleanup tool and it
said there were no programs found and I went to try to uninstall Chromium,
it takes me to internet explorer and shows how to uninstall the
application: 1) Go to control Panel 2) Press uninstall program under
Program and Settings 3) press uninstall. I followed the instructions and it
didn't work.

Can you be more specific? Is Chromium no longer present on your computer?
