Uninstall...

I have answered this a thousand times. If you want to completely uninstall PoE you will need the following:

1. A nine ounce kettle
2. three ounces of kiwi feces - preferably a female's.
3. The cinematic disc of the D2 installation
4. 1/2 cup of paprika
5. A picture of one who has wronged you
6. a rubber band

Now, put the feces in the kettle - you may wish to strain it first depending on your preferences regarding consistency - place the kettle onto an already heated stove top or open flame, stir vigorously. Continue for three minutes or until the fece's have taken on a bronze patina. Remove from heat. While this is cooling add the paprika and let sit.

Take the picture and cut out the eyes and mouth, place it over your face by stringing the rubber band through the photo.

Watch the D2 cinematics

By the end of the disc the feces should be about the consistency of a foul ooze. Retrieve the kettle. Open the side of your pc case, toss the contents inside - leave the computer running while the update box is still in "allocating space" - PoE is no longer installed on your pc.

They should really just sticky this in the tech support section.

This is outrageous! I went through all this trouble to get the feces through customs.. had to stalk my ex's lover in order to take his picture, found out my d2 cinematics disk had scratches... so I had to buy a new one at e-bay.. And now my entire office stinks of poo.. But the PoE folder remains!

PEBCAK

On a slightly more serious note, having uninstalled PoE once and then weeks later reinstalled it, I was glad it saved all my settings despite my fit of anger.

hahah

Can someone please just explain how to get rid of the game? I tried to uninstall from programs and features and the file was only like 10 Mb. It installed like 5-6 GB on my SSD...

Sorry for my sarcastic response earlier.

I assume you've tried running a program like CC cleaner? Keep in mind I am not really a tech guy so if that program sucks or something please don't crush my soul.

If you have tried using some software to totally remove the game and have been unable to do so, I would recommend contacting support. in the mean time I will move this to the tech section, where it will probably receive better attention, I'll check with the other moderators for someone to assist you as well.

Use CCleaner to uninstall it. Then clear out the cache using CCleaner. Then if that doesnt work find the folder on your C disk (or whatever) and manually delete it. Thats really all you can do. Not everything is a clean uninstall. Sometimes you just have to deal with the extra GB that is wasted. Should be downloading so much porn to fill up your space if a few MB is life or death.

Haha! This is getting funny, especially the part of the Kiwi..uh...stuff. =)

Well, unfortunately I never actually got to play the game. I have played LOTRO, and when they did the upgrade 10 recently (back in Jan. or Feb.?) I could no longer play.

So I went to WoW and can STILL play there thank the gods of MMOs.

My son wanted me to play this with him because he is in another place far, far away.

So I broke the news that my laptop wouldn't play the game, you know, the Direct3D thing.

Went to uninstall as I did LOTRO and low and behold I am here in the forum! Haha

Really! I mean, you would think that there is a simple "README.TXT" file in the main game folder on C: but noooooooooooooooooo. I assumed if I uninstalled that little loader program (Path of Exile.exe) it would "probably" dump the 5GB file(s) and other stuff, BUT... I wasn't sure so I came here.

So this is one of those "the guys made a great game, unfortunately the unistall sucks" situation? Probably leave some stuff in the registry?

Oh well. Going to do what someone suggested, do the Control Panel/remove tiny program. I'll go back and see if the big 5GB stuff is gone, if not...I'll order some Kiwi poop.
