If you do not have a CD burning software, then refer the document How to run GB_Prog.exe utility after booting your computer using Windows Startup disk.

Use the bootable GoBack CD

1: Insert the bootable GoBack CD into the CD/DVD drive.

Restart the computer.

After the computer reboots, type the following command and press Enter:

gb_prog.exe /u

Uninstall GoBack

If you are using Windows XP with the XP Start menu (instead of the Classic Start Menu), on the Windows taskbar, click Start > Control Panel, and then double-click Add or Remove Programs.
