Hi,

I need bitcoin erased from a certain computer EVERYTHING.
I uninstalled, but when I downloaded again it started to synch my wallet.

How do I delete all the data, transaction history adresses etc from my computer?
OS Wi7 64 Bit

Remove the C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin-qt folder, the wallet and blockchain are stored there.

Use RevoUnistaller, do a full clean which will remove all directories and registry entries.

Bitcoin-Qt stores NOTHING in the registry. Windows on the other hand may store some information of what was last run/installed though.

You're right, it doesn't apart from some URL handling rules.

Was just giving the OP another option if he wanted to remove all existing traces of it. IE, a fresh clean install.
