how uninstall?

Hello,

I tried to uninstall the game. However neither in the software uninstall window nor in the folder itself I couldn't find how to uninstall. The programmers must have been really confident, that no one ever wanted to uninstall their game. ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ノ

Maybe someone of the geeks here can explain me how. Or I will have to wait the days until they release the game and with it the uninstall.exe @_@

Thanks in advance

Find folder, right click, delete.

Or go to, control panel, programs and functions, find path of exile and uninstall

That's actually the proper way to remove everything for PoE really. You can "Uninstall" from the Add/Remove Programs if there is a Path of Exile option (not sure if there is), but at the end of that, you're going to end up going to the Path of Exile folder and deleting it anyway to get rid of anything that was left over.

There is also a folder made in your Documents folder for Path of Exile (My Games I believe). That can also be deleted if it isn't removed with the Uninstaller (although you'll lose all settings and stuff).

I wrote that I couldn't uninstall it in the software uninstall tab. It's not there.

- Go to your Start Menu
- Go to Run
- Type 'cmd'
- Type 'WMIC' when command prompt pulls up
- Type 'product get name'
- Find Path of Exile
- Type 'product where name = "Path of Exile" '

See if this will get it to show up on the list. If it's not showing up in your control panel for add and remove programs, then it probably won't - but it's worth a try.

it's actually showing up in the List,
when I type 'product where name = "Path of Exile" '
it says wrong alias "Invalid alias verb."

Woops, forgot a part of it.

product where name = "Path of Exile" call uninstall
