Discord: Uninstall completely - how it works
If you have any problems with Discord or you no longer want to use the program, you can completely uninstall the software. We'll show you how it's done.
Step 1: Uninstall Discord completely
With the free GeekUninstaller you can get rid of Discord and all remains with just a few clicks. The program does not require installation. Alternatively, you can remove Discord manually:
- Open the Control Panel and select the "Uninstall a program" item under the "Programs" category.
- Search for "Discord" in the list of installed programs and double-click on the entry.
- Then Discord is automatically uninstalled. No further window opens, after a few seconds the program disappears from the list.
Step 2: remove any remains of the software
You have uninstalled Discord from your computer, but some files remain on your computer. You must now remove these yourself.
- Press the [Windows] and [R9] keys simultaneously so that the "Execute" command opens.
- Enter "% AppData% / Discord" here without the quotation marks and confirm with "OK".
- Then a folder opens. Delete the entire contents of the folder or directly the entire folder.
- Repeat these steps for the% LocalAppData% / Discord command.
- If you then restart your computer, Discord is completely removed.
- If you only had problems with Discord, you can now download and reinstall the latest version of Discord.
