I have removed MATLAB or other MathWorks products from my Windows computer, but it still appears in the Control Panel or the Apps & Features list in the Settings app on Windows. How do I remove it?

The entry for the product(s) may still appear if the uninstallation of the product(s) did not complete correctly or if the installation files were removed manually. Follow the steps below to fix this. Please do not edit any unnecessary entries in the program mentioned below or it can negatively affect your computer.
  1. Open the Start Menu and search for regedit
  2. Open the first result
  3. Go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\"
  4. Remove the entry for the product(s) you'd like to remove from the Settings app and Control Panel
