On my Windows 8.1 Pro machine, I've just uninstalled Visual Studio 2012 and a couple of Express Editions of 2013 plus all of their associated packages. I've since realised that I probably didn't do them in the correct order, since I didn't realise there was one. Two of the packages I removed were:

Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 3.0.50813.0
Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 4 Runtime 4.0.40804.0

After removing them and then later running Check for Updates, I saw the following in the list of Important updates:

Security Update for Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 (KB2993937)
Security Update for Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 4.0 (KV2993928)

Once Windows has applied them, the following entires reappear in the list of Add or Remove Programs

Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 3.0.50813.0
Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 4 Runtime 4.0.40804.0

I've checked a Windows 7 SP1 machine and the same happens.

How can I completely remove these items?
