I installed Toribash, but now I want to uninstall it. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with an uninstaller, so I've got no clue how to do it.
I read somewhere all I need is to delete the files and remove a registry entry, but I'm not sure. Its installer might polluted other areas of the system. It's very hard to track down some registry entries. Any reliable method?
Edit: It doesn't pollute the filesystem, but creates a large number of registry entries. (For example it associates *.rpl files with itself.)

Well, if you really want to, you could try installing it again, and if it displays a list of files it installs, then you could use that to make sure all traces are gone. But, since it doesn't look like a piece of spyware, you could also just delete the folder/start menu link and be done with it.
2It seems like Toribash doesn't create files outside its directory. Fortunately it doesn't make any new registry entry besides its association with its replay files.
So it's enough to delete its files, shortcuts and remove the association of the *.rpl files.
Windows? Try Revo Uninstaller. Very good at uninstalling and clearing out registry entries. Afterwards use Everything to check for any remaining files and folders.
1If you have Windows 8,
- Go to the main menu where you see the tiles of apps.
- Put your mouse in the bottom right corner. A side menu will pop up.
- Click search.
- Search to then click Toribash (do not open the file) then click once; it should highlight.
- Go to the bottom, then press “open file location”. Remember, you must have already deleted Toribash out of the Recycling Bin.
- Click “open file location” and right-click the file “Toribash”, then press delete.
There you go. You’re welcome, Windows 8 users.
