HOW DO I UNINSTALL?
Okay so your new update broke the game, so I want to uninstall this garbage, but "overgrowth.exe is open" and it won't let me delete it. It isn't in task manager, so how do I delete your guys new virus?

You're a genius, ya know who would NEVER think of restarting a computer when this crap happens? Guess what buttercup, still won't get off my computer. I love my $30 viruses.rodeje25 wrote:Lol you call it a virus?

It isn't a virus. It is a game.

Gee, way to be a dick.
Like, I get not enjoying the game and all, but you can easily get a refund from Wolfire's customer support.
You can delete the files from where you installed them.

Why not wait for future updates to see if they fix it?DJBoomstick wrote:Okay so your new update broke the game, so I want to uninstall this garbage, but "overgrowth.exe is open" and it won't let me delete it. It isn't in task manager, so how do I delete your guys new virus?
Why are you downloading an Alpha and expecting perfection?
Why are you being rude for no discernible reason?
So many mysteries.

How to delete/ uninstall
PART 1: NON STEAM
Step 1: first, own a PC (if this is unavailable, please skip to step 300)
Step 2: turn on PC
Step 3: use mouse, touchpad or other navigation software to move the cursor ( often in arrow form) toward the file(s) you wish to delete
Step 4: click the left mouse button
Step 5: click it again, it often takes 2
Step 6: option a- hold left click and drag over every file in the folder. Option b- ctrl/cmd+A.
Step 7: press the key marked either delete or backspace.
Step 8: wait
Step 9: wait, this could take some time.
Step 10: still waiting. Why is this file so big?!
Step 11: ok it's done, now if there is a message labelled Overgrowth.exe is open, close overgrowth, if it isn't, close the error or skip the file
Step 12: it should be done, maybe
Step 13: bitch about how long and stupid this post I have written is
Step 14: continue with day to day life, you shouldn't have to worry about pesky old OG anymore.
PART 2: STEAM
Step 1: repeat previous walk through's stages 1-3 though instead of navigating to the folder, navigate to steam
Step 2: right click Overgrowth in your library
Step 3: press, "delete local data"
Step 4: repeat previous walk through's stages 12-14
Step 300: the f*** are you doing here?!

Re: HOW DO I UNINSTALL?
I can assure you that Overgrowth does not qualify as a virus.
We don't do anythig particular with users system that should cause the .exe to become unremovable.
There are mutliple reasons why this might occur, some possible hints here:
