TL;DR

To remove Claude completely, including its config files, on Windows 11, use the command line with administrative privileges.

Guidance

  1. Open Command Prompt as Administrator: Right-click on the Start button and select "Command Prompt (Admin)" or "Windows PowerShell (Admin)" to ensure you have the necessary permissions to delete files and folders.
  2. Navigate to the Claude installation directory: Use the cd command to change the directory to where Claude is installed, if you know the path.
  3. Use a command to uninstall Claude: Since the specific command to uninstall Claude is not provided, you may need to search for "uninstall Claude" or check the official Claude documentation for the correct uninstall command.
  4. Manually delete remaining config files: After uninstalling, if some config files remain, you can manually delete them using the del command, specifying the full path to the files.

Example

No specific example can be provided without knowing the exact uninstall command for Claude.

Notes

The exact command for uninstalling Claude and the location of its config files are not specified in the issue. It's recommended to check the official documentation or support channels for Claude for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the official uninstall command is not provided, using a combination of uninstallation via command line (if available) and manual deletion of config files seems to be the most straightforward approach to remove Claude completely from Windows 11.
