How to Uninstall REFOG Keylogger Without Knowing Master Password

Section B: Reset the REFOG Keylogger password

Most likely that the person who installed the REFOG Keylogger already set a password to protect the software from being modified or uninstalled. Please follow the steps below on how to remove the password.

1. Go to Control Panel, launch Folder Options and then go to the View tab. Uncheck “Hide protected operating system files” (click yes at the warning box) and choose the “Show hidden files, folders, and drives” radio button. Click OK.

2. In the MPK folder window that you opened earlier in Section A, delete the file S0000. Do note that you WON’T see the S0000 file unless you have changed the folder view settings in step 1.

Section C: Uninstall REFOG Keylogger from your computer

1. Refer back to Section A on how to run the REFOG Keylogger which is either through the shortcut from the MPK folder or searching for MPKView.exe.

2. The REFOG window will now be displayed and you’ll no longer be asked for the password if you were before. Go to Tools from the menu bar and select Uninstall.
