As you use the calculator, it does create a few small files: Days.ini to hold your settings, days51help.html which contains the calculator's help information and which is created the first time you use the Help menu, and Daysdata.txt to hold employee names and shift data if you enter these. All of these files are stored in the same folder as days.exe. To uninstall the calculator, just delete days.exe. It's also safe to delete Days.ini, as well as days51help.html if it exists. Any employee names and shift data you've entered are stored in Daysdata.txt, so if you need to retain that information, keep that file. |
