How to uninstall this game?


Recommended Posts

If you downloaded directly from ArenaNet:
> Open Control Panel >Programs > Uninstall A Program (It should be on this list)

This is the official page on it, and the correct way to uninstall. If GW2 isn't showing up on your uninstall list, that page I linked also has further resources available from Windows on the subject.

Since you're a 6-year vet, I doubt you'd be playing through Steam, but the instructions may differ slightly for that.

Hey guys,

6 years gw2 vet here. I had alot of fun playing gw2 but its time for me to move on. Trying to uninstall game but I can't find it under control panel, program. Tried Ccleaner, It's not there as well.

How do you correctly uninstall this game?

plz help. Thank you.

If you play for that long time, there is a chance you just copy/pasted your GW2 folder directly to your current computer. People do that do skip patching the base-client from scratch. Currently my folder has the size of 62.8 GB, which was also copy/pasted many times and carried over 2-3 computers so far XD. A lot of people have internet connections with data-limits, so you want to avoid patching such large volumes.

So if you cannot find an entry in your app-list, there is a high chance you've just copied the folder to your pc. If that is the case, deleting the folder should do the trick.

This make sense. I have copied whole folder of GW2 in my computer from old one. Thank you again.

PS

yeah, you guys missed it. I gave out few thousands gold and few legendary weapons yesterday in lion's arc. I don't have much but account bound stuff now.
