Hi Team,
Could you please advise on the scenario in windows 10 machine : Where we need to uninstall/remove python from user profile A (installed by user A in its own profile folder) - via an admin user or system account.
Currently when we try to uninstall it via admin/system account - it displays that the python product is not installed for this user (admin/system).
Appreciate your assistance.
Regards,
Yogesh.

It depends on where the Python installation is located, but I would just

delete the entire folder tree at %APPDATA%\Python\Python3xxx.
If Python was installed for all users, its main set of files will
probably be in "c:\Program Files" and Window's "Add or Remove" page
should remove it.
If it was installed just for User A, then the "Add or Remove" page will
find it if run from User A's account. If for some reason User A will
not or cannot cooperate, the admin could change User A's password and
then run "Add or Remove". Of course the admin would not be able to
change the pw back, but if User A is not cooperating maybe that wouldn't
matter.

Hi,
Is there any way I can uninstall python installed (as user) in someone else' account - without login as that user, but login as local admin ?

Yogesh.

It depends on whether you can use that user's password. With the

password, it's very feasible. Without it, some people seem to have
found ways. There some discussion of this here -

Hello,
Thank you for your response.
May I know how to uninstall it from user A profile – if user A is no longer available.
Is there any means - where I can use local admin account to uninstall the app (installed in User A profile, without user A’s intervention)
Regards,
Yogesh.

If Python was installed by user A in their own profile folder, it is likely that it was installed just for that user. In this case, you may need to log in as user A to uninstall Python from their profile. Have you tried logging in as user A and uninstalling Python from there?
