uninstall Calibre? No way provided? WinXP

kite · 09-29-2014, 07:50 AM

I've just installed Calibre 1.48 on my Windows XP machine, over the top of Calibre version ? 0.74 ?.
No "uninstall Calibre" is/was apparent with either version.

How do I get prepared to unistall?

@kite - if its an installed edition it should be in Control Panel->Programs & Features (or whatever it was in XP)

If not try running the MSI again and you should get option to Change, Repair or Remove

If its the portable edition, just delete the folder where it was installed.

IMHO any decent (honourable) program will provide a NORMAL uninstall via the control panel: Add remove programs. This is the way Calibre does it (except for Portable, which is technically not 'installed, just copied.)

There are exceptions: They also CLEARLY indicate at the beginning that Reversal is not possible if you proceed further.

Uninstall on the Menu is W3.0
