Hello Yamen,

Thank you for your question and for reaching out with your question today.

If you are receiving an error message stating that Windows cannot find the BrightVBN application at the specified location (`C:\Program Files (x86)\Bright VPN\Bright VPN.exe`) even though you have already deleted the application, you can follow these steps to resolve the issue:

1. Check startup programs: Open the Task Manager by right-clicking on the taskbar and selecting "Task Manager." Go to the "Startup" tab and ensure that there are no entries related to Bright VPN. If you find any, disable or delete them.

2. Remove residual files: Even though you have deleted the application, there might be residual files or shortcuts remaining. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to `C:\Program Files (x86)` (or `C:\Program Files` for 32-bit systems). Look for a folder named "Bright VPN" and delete it if it exists.

3. Check the Registry: Incorrect entries in the Windows Registry could still be causing the error message. Please exercise caution when working with the Registry, as making incorrect changes can cause system issues. To check for Bright VPN entries, follow these steps:
   a. Press Win + R on your keyboard to open the Run dialog box.
   b. Type "regedit" (without quotes) and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
   c. Backup your registry by selecting "File" and then "Export" from the menu.
   d. In the Registry Editor, navigate to the following path:
      ```
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
      ```
   e. Look for any entries related to Bright VPN in the right pane. If you find any, right-click on them and select "Delete."
   f. Additionally, navigate to the following path:
      ```
      HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
      ```
      Repeat the same steps to check for and delete any Bright VPN entries.

4. Run an antivirus scan: It's possible that remnants of the Bright VPN application or related files are still present on your computer. Run a full system scan using a reliable antivirus software to detect and remove any potential threats.

5. Clean up temporary files: Use the built-in Disk Cleanup utility in Windows to remove temporary files and clear out any leftover remnants. To access it, press Win + R, type "cleanmgr" (without quotes), and hit Enter. Select the drive where Windows is installed (usually C:\) and let the utility scan for and remove unnecessary files.

6. Restart your computer: After performing the above steps, restart your computer to ensure that any changes take effect.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue of the error message appearing when you start your computer, even though you have deleted the BrightVBN application.
