Title: Can't uninstall Bitcoin core
Post by: morbius55 on September 05, 2017, 05:00:23 PM
The uninstall shortcut says it has been changed or moved. Bitcoin core doesn't show up in programs list either so i can't uninstall from there. I'm running Windows 10.

Any specific reason why do you want to uninstall Core?

Can you check if the "uninstall.exe" file can be found in the "C:\Program Files\Bitcoin" folder?

You could also try to install it again - if there is no uninstall.exe - to overwrite the program files and then, see if you can manage to run the uninstall setup.

You run portable version or setup version?
If setup, download last version https://bitcoin.org/en/download, and install them
If portable, also download the link above, unzip and run
Your wallet will automatically appear in the program.

Before installation, check to see if your wallet is in the folder C: \ Users \ YOUR USER \ AppData \ Roaming \ Bitcoin
