Incomplete uninstall of Citrix app

Hi -
I uninstalled a Citrix application. Now that I've uninstalled it, I am now getting a request, at login, from a Citrix dialogue box wanting me to login. I can escape out of it, but I note that Task Manager shows four background processes: Citrix Connection Center (32 bit), Citrix Connection Manager (32 bit), Citrix FTA, URL Redirector (32 bit) and Citrix Receiver Application (32 bit). I can end the tasks, but I'd like to not have that extra step at login.

Any ideas? Is there a more thorough uninstall? I've never figured out Startup processes in Windows 10, but might there be something there?

I'll appreciate help. Thank you.

Hi How did you uninstall the program? Did you use a program like Revo? https://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html
After I use Revo, I use everything to clean up any left over files. It's a great search program. I have used it for years.

Hello holdum323 -
That Revo worked. I used it to find a couple files that had a distinctive Citrix icon and I used Revo to delete them. I rebooted and that Citrix dialogue box did not show up and the Citrix background processes are not there now.

Thank you.

Hi. @Doug8765 Thanks for your reply. I really think you will like the Search Everything. It's a great tool. I'm going to add the link again. I'm glad you got your issue solved. FileHippo is a safe place to get free down loads. Revo is a great software. Have used it for along time.

I'm a clean PC freak. When I uninstall a program, I want all of it gone. If you Type Citrix in Everything, it will find any files that Revo missed and you can delete them there. I go one step further and search the registry for items left behind in "Regedit". I do not recommend Regedit, because you have to know what you're doing or you might brick your PC. I have had a few years of experience and I always have a backup image of my OS when I mess up; that I can use to restore my PC back just like it was the day I created the image. Now that you learned these things, pass them forward to other members here on techspot. I'm glad that my suggestions helped you with your issue(y):D

Thank you. I too am quite cautious about messing with the registry.
