Can't unregister in Pokerstars tournaments?

This has happened twice now. I join 3 dollar NL tourny and I can't unregister. The tournament lobby has no unregister button.

Is there something I should be aware of?

why did you register for it the first place if you didn't want to play?

I believe that on pokerstars (and many other sites) they won't let you unregister once you are within 10 minutes of the start-time (they take the unregister button away).

from tourney rules at stars : (10 minute rule??)

Unregistration. In most tournaments a player can unregister up to 10 minutes before the start of a tournament. Players who have won their seats through a satellite can unregister; however, they will receive tournament dollars in exchange for their seat. Tournament dollars are credits available for use to buy in to any other PokerStars tournament.

I just changed my mind. Registered early, finished well in a couple sngs and wanted to head out.

Not a big deal, I'd just rather know now with a meaningless micro tourny rather than a 20+2 or something.
