Hi Victor, Thanks, and jingle bells :-D
Perhaps I didn't use proper terminology and you didn't understand me. But I've already tried that. There is no uninstall.exe (or uninst.exe, which I've seen in some programs) or uninstall.msi. And since it doesn't show up in Start > All Programs, I can't uninstall from there either.
I might add that I've tried installing Inkscape again, and put in a separate folder. And that one does show up in Programs and Features and therefore can be uninstalled. And I did uninstall it, after that test.
So I guess something must have gone wrong when I installed the first time. But I would like to get rid of it, and install a copy that contains the proper way of uninstalling. I just don't know how to do it, without any of the usual ways being available.
Thanks again :-)

Hi Brynn,
since I'm a long time Windows user I can try to help you (even though I'm on a Mac right now).
I believe that if you go to Start > Execute... > type "explorer" (hit enter).
You will get to Windows explorer. There, go to C:\Program Files\Inkscape Or it could also be C:\Program Files(x86)\Inkscape.
In these folders there might be a uninstall.exe or uninstall.msi file.
Let me know if these instructions worked or if you need further guidance.
Merry Christmas to you and all Inkscape users worldwide!

2016-12-24 10:56 GMT-08:00 brynn <brynn@...3089...>: Hi Friends, I recently installed Inkscape 0.91, 32-bit, exe installer on a brand new Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit computer. However, it doesn't show up in Programs and Features or the Start menu. So I can't figure out how to uninstall it. I looked in the installation directory, because in some programs, I've seen an uninstall.exe file. But I don't find that in this case. How can I uninstall this? (Note that I recently was discussing about having multiple versions installed, but that's on an old computer. This is happening on a new computer, where this is the only version I have installed. I do have a 7z version of another version, but it's my understanding that the zip file programs are not technically installed.)
Thanks for your help, brynn
