HI All. Anyone know how to perform a complete/full/clean uninstallation of NMM? I think that just running the uninstall executable is leaving client software artifacts on the HDD(?).

I uninstalled/reinstalled NMM 0.46.0 and set to admin compatbility during some of the precious Nexus site uptime today. Now, every time I try and download a mod (while the site is up), I get an error message saying the NMM failed to start because another instance is already running. Then, when I close the program I get the standard NMM 'experienced and error and needs to close' / tracelog dialouge.

The unstable site mechanics and ongoing server maintenance outages notwithstanding, it seems that since the uninstall.exe/reinstall action, NMM doesn't work at all.

Any idea how to scrub the software completely up and above running the uninstall script??
