Just delete the Calibre Portable folder. That's it.

If you wish to keep settings and library, move those to another folder before deleting.

You can even have multiple copies of Calibre Portable on the thumb drive (because of tweaks, I use separate Calibre Portable installs for regular fiction, fanfiction and manga).

Calibre Portable does not 'Install" like programs do on your computer (no registry,placing stuff into the Compters common areas...)

If you are doing an Update, just install over it. The Libraries and settings remain

Of course, a backup is a good idea as Flash drives fail with little warning.
