    desire to remove them read on. Otherwise skip to step #6.
    The Start Menu
    You may find in your start menu various references to the Autodesk software
    even though you have uninstalled it. You can delete these references by right
    clicking on the item you wish to delete and select Delete:

    The Root Directory


    There may be various folders on the C drive to delete. Be warned these are
    project paths or working directories. This tutorial assumes you have made a
    backup of your dwgs and projects and we are not responsible if you loose them.

    Documents and Settings


    Navigate to your C drive, Documents and Settings. In Documents and Settings
    are multiple folders or profiles, one named after the account you logged in with.
    Open that folder then open Application Data. Delete Autodesk in Application
    Data.

    You may do the same for All Users and any other profiles you may have used.

    Program Files
    In Program Files on your C drive there may yet be more folders in reference to
    Autodesk. Remember, some of these may contain Project paths or Workspace
    directory information. We again, assume you have made a back up of your work.

    Common Files
    In Program Files, in Common Files may be more folders in reference to
    Autodesk. You may opt to delete those as well.

    Registry
    There may be some instances of Autodesk in your registry but we will not
    concern ourselves with those.
