Uninstalling Corel Draw X7

Hi Guys

I have been trying to uninstall the Corel Draw Graphics Suit x7 from my system so as to reinstall it on my new SSD.

But due to some weird reason it refuses to uninstall and gives me a confusing error

it says "The setup encountered a problem while trying to configure your software. Could not access file : C:\users\abc\appdata\local\temp\289462746pas\cgs\setup_x64.msi"

The funny part is every time I try to uninstall it gives my some other folder after temp\

furthermore I tried installing a fresh install on my SSD but after installation it refuses to activate saying that the maximum number of activation limit is reached and cannot activate. Though this is just my second installation. I did not install it anywhere else other than my prime machine. So is this a one installation version or what

If anyone has any clue kindly share bcos the trial version is about to end.

Thanks to everyone

    Hi,
    For what it's worth, I was able to uninstall CDGS X7 using the disk. I used setup.exe from the x64 folder on the disk since I had installed the 64 bit version. There's also a file somewhere on the drive with the same name which is the equivalent of the one on the disk .
    In the past, I have had trouble uninstalling CDGS using Control Panel.
    Is your SSD drive going to be an internal C drive. Otherwise, there are some issues on whether or not a program can be installed on it. I'm not familiar with them.
