Just a suggestion that might work, go to the website as if to download it again, it should give you a option to repair or remove, hopefully this will solve your problem. Take care, love and peace anne x

Reinstall it over the current installation, then remove it. -- Savage

I have re downloaded this and then uninstalled it and it still didn't work.

Try the uninstall from safe mode. I hate Yahoo!

If you are unable to uninstall Yahoo Messenger from Control Panel >> Add or remove programs, you can run the uninstall wizard.

If you have cCleaner installed you can uninstall from there as well.
Or else find the files associated with Yahoo Messenger in File Explorer and delete them all.

I found a relevant article which details these steps on what to do when uninstallation fails for Yahoo Messenger, for anyone else who needs help
