How to uninstall Matlab 7 from Windows 7 - Guaranteed

I've installed Matlab 7 on my laptop long time ago mostly for doing my assignment. But now i hardly open it and considering to uninstall the program plus the matlab.exe application is detected by my Kaspersky antivirus as a virus everytime i start up my laptop which is very irritating. What i don't know initially before installing the program is that Matlab 7 is not compatible with Windows 7! But miraculously i managed to install and run it without problem on my Windows 7.

Now the problem occur when uninstalling Matlab 7 from Windows 7. When trying to uninstall Matlab 7 a message "exception calling main" shows up and stop the uninstall process. I've read the forums, mathwork website and tried some recommendations that works for them but unfortunately not for me.

I've tried some of these recommendations (that is not working for me):
1. change the program compatibility to Windows 2000 or anything since it is not compatible with Windows 7 and try uninstall Matlab 7.
2. install other uninstall program to remove Matlab 7 like revo uninstaller.
3. find and run lmtools.exe at the Matlab folder and stop the license then uninstall Matlab 7. (i can't find my license though)

Then i came across a forum on how to install Matlab 7 on Windows 7. Well i've already have Matlab 7 running on my Windows 7 laptop obviously so why bother reading through the post, but one post captured my interest saying that changing the windows 7 theme to windows classic will enable Matlab 7 installation on Windows 7. Then it strike my mind that if that is possible maybe it works the other way around too, to uninstall it. So i went to do a little bit of that and a little bit of this and Voila! It works like a charm!

Sorry for the long babbling. Basically you just need to change the Windows 7 theme to Windows Classic and the uninstall program will run just fine. So if you don't know how to change the Windows 7 theme, here is the instruction:

1. Right click at the desktop > click personalize > Scroll down to the bottom of the window screen > click Windows Classic.
2. Now uninstall Matlab 7. Click Start > Matlab7 > Uninstall.  
       
Hope this help. Tell me if this works for you.
