Hello. I downloaded ADE, but I chose Adobe instead of Overdrive. I keep trying to Erase Computer Authorization. I put in my password, and I keep getting the message that they're unable to erase authorization. What can I do? Can I completely remove ADE from my computr and start again?
Thanks.

Right-click the Adept key and choose Delete.
In the Confirm Key Delete dialog, click OK.
Your authorization will be deleted.
