Good question! That very issue is sometimes debated on the
|
||||
@samp{cygwin-apps} mailing list. Check the list archives if you want to
|
||||
know more.

@subsection How do I uninstall Cygwin?
|
||||
|
||||
Setup has no automatic uninstall facility. Just delete everything
|
||||
manually:
|
||||
|
||||
@itemize @bullet
|
||||
@item Cygwin shortcuts on the Desktop and Start Menu
|
||||
|
||||
@item The registry tree @samp{Software\Cygnus Solutions} under
|
||||
@code{HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE} and/or @code{HKEY_CURRENT_USER}.
|
||||
|
||||
@item Anything under the Cygwin root folder, @samp{C:\cygwin} by
|
||||
default.
|
||||
|
||||
@item Anything created by setup in its temporary working directory.
|
||||
|
||||
@end itemize
|
||||
|
||||
It's up to you to deal with other changes you made to your system, such
|
||||
as installing the inetd service, altering system paths, etc. Setup
|
||||
would not have done any of these things for you.
