3DS Max 2015 Installed even if previously uninstalled

[NickDiGiano]

Hello Autodesk community, There is a problem with my 3ds Max Student version that's driving me crazy. Basically I encountered a problem while installing 3ds Max, "Could not write value CoreFiles to key Products\7CE....\Features", which I see is a common problem here. Now, the real problem is: I uninstalled everything from 3ds Max 2015 (both in Uninstall Tool and the default Windows uninstaller) and deleted a ton of stuff, AppData (Roaming/Local), I even deleted Autodesk folders in the registry, I basically eradicated everything about 3ds Max 2015 (and even something about 2014 and previous versions) and here's the problem: http://i.gyazo.com/1595056b7fe568ae05c38e3d754b803a.png See? It tells me 3ds Max 2015 is already installed. It is impossible, there are almost no leftovers of the program itself in my pc. What am I doing wrong? How can I reset the whole thing? My specs, if you ever need them: Acer Predator G3610 Processor / Chipset CPU Intel Core i5 2320 / 3.00 GHz 64-bit Computing Yes RAM Installed Size 8 GB Technology DDR3

some people have had sucess using this tool from microsoft:

1. Go here: http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/

2. Under Section 2, select:  Install or upgrade software or hardware

3. Run Now:  Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled.
