A6210 wont install or uninstall

Hello I purchased my netgear a6210 adapter in june and installed it in june with no problems at all using the disc. Yesterday I updated my computer and when i came back today and laucnhed the netgear genie I could not connect to my 5g network and only could connect to the non 5g one. Thinking it was A driver problem I uninstalled the driver. When i tried reinstalling my driver it would get stuck on the step that told me to plug in my a6210. It would tell me that I did not have it plugged in even though I did. Because it didn't work i completely uninstalled netgear and tried reinstalling it. Now when i try to install it again the only two options I have are to reinstall or remove and neither work. The netgear application is still in my control panel when i go to uninstall a prgram but it won't let me uninstall. Also there is no program files or folder where they used to be. What exactly shoudl I do?
