Venus | | In response to xandr, I think that most all of RoadKil software is "portable" or "stand-alone" applications; so, you don't have to install it, per se. This means that in order to delete the program, all you have to do is either:
Method 1:
1. Right-click the application file, and a scroll will open.
2. Then select "delete".
Method 2:
1. You can simply highlight the program file with your mouse.
2. Then, punch the "delete" button on your keyboard.
As the author of these programs has noted here, if you are an "advanced user" and want to delete the registry entries, then you go to your registry editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Roadkil
To access your registry editor, go to:
Start>Run
Then type in "regedit" (without the quotes)
However, I would not tamper with your registry, unless you know what you are doing, lest you could accidently disrupt and disturb your Windows OS, which could cause other problems.
So, just leaving the registry entries is no big deal. These are rather compact and efficient programs anyway, and I have successfully used them for years without any sort of major problems.
However, if you want to check and clean your registry for errors, then there are plenty of free registry cleaners out there, and Wise Registry Cleaner is one that I most recommend to use. I think they are the best free registry cleaner going. So, this way you do not have to mess with editing the registry yourself.
However, though not the question here, concerning "installing" RoakKill software, I will also point out that even though these programs are stand-alone applications, I still like to make special folders in my programs folder, and then create shortcuts for them in my start menu.
I hope this helps answer your question.
Blessings,
