Default PT uninstall option greyed out

..since i want to make a fresh install and newer version of PT
(here PT12.7.1 HD on Win10 latest) i was looking at the
app settings in Win10 and was not able to uninstall PT because
the Button with "uninstall" is greyed out (inactiv).
Other (Avid-)Apps doesnt show this behavior...
How to make a clean uninstall of PT12.7.1 HD?

Default Re: PT uninstall option greyed out

Press the Windows Key + R to bring up the Run dialog.
Type Installer and press the OK button to bring up a file manager window showing all of the installers on the system.

Add Subject to the displayed columns. To do this, right click on the header row and select More from the list. Scroll down the list and check the box next to Subject and press OK.

Click on the Subject column to sort the list.

Scroll down until you find Pro Tools in the Subject column.

Right click on the .msi file and choose Uninstall to start the un-installer.
