Can't uninstall .NET 5 RC1

asp.net5

I'm trying to install .NET 4.6.1, but it claims I have a newer version installed and won't let me. I do have .NET 5 installed, so I'm trying to uninstall that. I had two installations, one for RC1 and one for RC1 Update 1. I removed the Update 1 installation, that went fine, but RC1 itself won't uninstall. When I run the uninstaller it opens a prompt to locate AspNet5.ENU.RC1.exe. This version of the installer seems to have been wiped from the internet in favor of the RC1 Update 1 installer (AspNet5.ENU.RC1_Update1.exe). If I cancel the prompt I get 0x80070642 - User cancelled installation. If I point it to the Update 1 installer, I get 0x80070001 - Incorrect function. I'm able to repair with no problems, I just can't uninstall.

How can I fix this so I can properly uninstall .NET 5 RC1?
