How do i uninstall the curse client

How do i uninstall this thing form my computer? I don't even play anymore and I cannot find this to uninstall. I may have found it in windows explorer, but it says i dont have permission to remove it. And i"m the Admin on this computer. theres no prompt to type in a password its just not letting me remove it. It also doesn't show up in install/uninstall programs on the control panel. I just want to get rid of it so it stops trying to load/send info & gets off my comp.

How do I completely uninstall curse client from my computer?    I want to download just a couple curse downloads.

Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel. On a Mac, just delete the application/folder. In both cases, that should work for any program, not just the CC.

Hi, sorry for bumping this thread, but I too would like to be able to completely uninstall the curse client. The problem I find is that the Mac client must be leaving hidden files somewhere. As when I uninstall it and remove all the preference files found in "/library" the preferences return when I reinstall curse. So a full list of ALL the hidden folders and files installed by curse and a method of removing them is required, and on a side note, I REALLY REALLY HATE COMPANIES THAT HIDE STUFF ON MY COMPUTER WHEN I INSTALL APPS. PLEASE DONT DO THIS!

I cant comment on the windows version, but with the complaints I've seen on the forum about being unable to uninstall I imagine some kind of screwed up registry abuse is going on, with Mac it should be as simple as drag and drop installation/uninstallation, so why the need for hidden folders? no other app I know of needs to do this, so why curse client? Is it sloppy programming? A poor attempt at porting from PC to Mac? I don't care really, just tell me where all the files are so I can remove them as and when I want. You will probably also find this would reduce alot of the problems with the app, as it's a very basic method of problem solving to remove all previous traces of an app and reinstall it if you have problems, If theres still very important preference files from a past version still lingering around, then they are clearly going to interfere with a new installation.

 

I ask again, get it sorted. Hopefully curse v4 isn't going to be such a mess. But I don't want to install v4 until I am completely sure I can remove all traces of it if necessary.

I simply want to test where the errors I am finding are coming from. Is it the client, an addon, or a combination of addons. It is impossible to determine the cause of the errors with the client installed.
