Hi there. Now that the beta is over I would like to uninstall it from my computer to free up some space. I know that the main folder is in the Origin Games folder but what do I need to do to completely uninstall the beta from my computer? What are all the different folders I need to delete? Thanks.

    True but I'm afraid of Origin leaving some residual DRM crap from the game on my PC. :3

    omer584: You remove it to save space. Because basically the BETA software is now, completely useless.

    It will not be useless if we manage to set up our own server haha.

    After uninstall via control panel (windows) just run CCleaner (registry cleaner) a couple of times in a row and ur fine.

    One of the developers tweeted yesterday that there is no reason to keep the beta on your computer. This makes me think that they may have another beta weekend with a new, updated build. At least I hope so!! I wasn't going to remove this one just yet, but if you need space, it sounds like it's just useless now.

    I uninstalled from Origin and it just opened up Control panel.  I uninstalled from there and it seemed to work just fine for me.
