Fully Uninstalling RightBooth

Updated: Feb 2021
​
When you run the RightBooth uninstaller,  the software is uninstalled but there are lots of other files left behind, such as the RightBooth Media Library and the RightBooth Settings.

This means that if you re-install RightBooth again, it will simply use the previous files and it may not achieve the result you were expecting.  So this article explains how to fully remove RightBooth from your computer.

1) Remove the RightBooth Product Code

Before you uninstall RightBooth, you should remove any product code that you may have previously entered into the software.  To do this:

• Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet
• Run RightBooth
• Click the 'Product code' button on the main window
• On the 'Product code' panel, click the button: 'Remove this product code from this computer'

RightBooth will then remove the product code from your computer and also remove it from our licensing server database to allow you to use the code on another computer if required.

2) Remove the RightBooth Application

• Go to the Windows Control Panel
• Click Programs and Features
• Click on the listed application: RightBooth
• ​Click Uninstall to remove the RightBooth application files from your computer

3) Remove the RightBooth Program Data Folder

Running the RightBooth uninstaller will not remove the program data files that are created by RightBooth while it was in use, (such as the RightBooth Settings file).

These files are all saved in the currently logged on user's local application data folder.

• ​Run Windows Explorer
• Browse to the user's AppData\Local folder.  In the example screenshot the current user is Nigel and his folder is located at: c:\Users\Nigel\AppData\Local
• Select (tick) the folder RightBooth
• Press the Delete key
• Choose Yes to delete the folder.

4) Remove the RightBooth Media Library

Running the RightBooth uninstaller may not fully remove the RightBooth Media Library folder. The Media Library is located here:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\RightBooth7 Library and you can remove this as follows:

• ​Run Windows Explorer
• Browse to the folder C:\Users\Public\Documents\
• Select the folder RightBooth7 Library
• Press the Delete key
• Choose Yes to delete the folder and all its contents​

5) Remove Your RightBooth Event Files

You may wish to also remove all the event files, video files and photo files that you have created using RightBooth.  These files are usually all stored in your Documents folder within the sub-folder RightBooth7
Remove this folder follows:​

• ​Run Windows Explorer
• Open your Documents folder
• Select the folder RightBooth7
• Press the Delete key
• Choose Yes to delete the RightBooth7 folder and all its contents​

6) Remove the RightBooth Temporary Folder

RightBooth also creates temporary files in your Windows Temp folder.  These files can usually be found in the Temp folder for the currently logged on user.  Example location:
​
C:\Users\Nigel\AppData\Local\Temp\RightBooth

​Again, simply use Windows Explorer to delete the temporary RightBooth folder, or better still, run the Windows Disk Clean Up utility by typing 'Disk Clean Up' into your Start search text box, then using the utility to delete all Temporary files from your computer.
