I strongly suggest setting win 8 compatibility mode on the setup file for that! Couldn't print certain things without the website driver. After this I installed my drivers that I downloaded from the support site. This allowed the installer to remove it all, it had the brother printer name #2 #3 #4 #5 all checked for removal! After rebooting I was totally clean from all brother (I have a MFC-J435W). I had to run command prompt as administrator, then run the above command. Verify the Test Page printed and click Close. On the General tab, click Print Test Page. Right click on the Brother HL-2270DW Series (Copy 1) driver and select Printer Properties. Or click Windows/Start and type Control Printers in the Start Search line then press Enter. I had to right click on the Setup.exe file and go to compatibility tab and set windows 8 compatibility mode, this will differ depending on your printer/OS combination. Click on Start and Run, type Control Printers, and then click OK. My registry key for my add/remove (programs and features) menu command was: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWOW6432NodeMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstallSetup.exe' -runfromtemp -l0x0009 UNINSTALL Reg=BHmini11 -removeonly Select Brother MFL-Pro Suite from the list, click Uninstall and follow the on screen. You can use many different free utilities to get the registry value that is a command that uninstalls the software. Click Start > Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features. My Brother Control Center 4 is not connecting to my Brother MFC-7860DW printer/scanner. I had to find the uninstaller file for the Brother suite.
