Uninstalling PS CS5 in Windows 10?

I recently upgraded my laptop to a new Dell Precision 5520 and transferred files and programs from the old laptop to the new.  My PS CS5 came over but doesn't work - I tried to uninstall so I could reinstall from the DVD, but I know now that CS5 it is not supported by Windows 10, so I tried to just uninstall it but it won't allow me to do so.  I did check to 'remove all preferences, but still doesn't work.  The error message suggests using Adobe Cleaner but when I click the link, the page is no longer to be found?

Any suggestions on how I can uninstall this from Windows 10 without having to do a Recovery to delete all apps keeping my files and folders?

Thank you!

This page has a working link to the cleaner tool, as well as removal instructions for CS5. Keeping in mind that Windows 10 wasn't out when CS5 was current, you will want to adapt the Windows instructions to Win 10. Come back and ask if you aren't sure.

Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems

Thank you. I recently got this message when trying to uninstall a Nikon software.

So this about uninstalling Nikon software and not Adobe Photoshop? In that case, it would make sense to post on the Nikon forum, if they have one, or reach out to them directly if the following links don't help.
