Uninstall

The proper way to remove RustRover depends on the method you used to install it.

Uninstall using the Toolbox App

If you installed RustRover using the Toolbox App, do the following:

Uninstall a standalone instance

If you are running a standalone RustRover instance, the default IDE directories are preserved when you remove your instance in case you want to keep your settings for later or to use them with another instance, another version, or another IDE. You can remove those directories if you are sure you won't need them.

  1. Open the Apps & Features section in the Windows Settings dialog, select the RustRover app and click Uninstall.

    Depending on your version of Windows, the procedure for uninstalling programs may be different. You can also manually run Uninstall.exe in the installation directory under /bin.

  2. Remove the following directories:

    Syntax

    %APPDATA%\JetBrains\<product><version>

    %LOCALAPPDATA%\JetBrains\<product><version>

    Example

    C:\Users\JohnS\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\RustRover2023.3

    C:\Users\JohnS\AppData\Local\JetBrains\RustRover2023.3

Uninstall silently on Windows

You can run the uninstaller with the /S switch as an administrator. The uninstaller is located in the installation directory under bin.

Run cmd (Windows Command Prompt) as administrator, change to the RustRover installation directory, and run the following:

>
bin\uninstall.exe /S
