How to uninstall P4V on Windows

Save unsubmitted workspace changes and P4V preferences before removing P4 Apps.

Quit the app

Close P4V and any work it is running, then use Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) to check for its remaining processes.

Use its uninstaller

Open Settings › Apps › Installed apps, find P4V and choose Uninstall. Use the vendor uninstaller rather than deleting its program folder.

winget uninstall --id Perforce.P4V --exact

For this installation, winget invokes the registered removal method. It is not a separate cleanup of user data. Windows may ask for administrator approval.

Check the result

winget list --id Perforce.P4V --exact

Read winget's result as well as its exit status: an explicit no-installed-package result concerns only this package, while a source, access or query error leaves the answer unknown. The commands do not delete anything.

What Mole lists

The recorded review contained no extra rows. This does not prove that no data exists elsewhere.

The MSI removed the program files, but Mole listed no extra rows in this test. %USERPROFILE%.p4qt remained, including ApplicationSettings.xml and log.config. Back it up before deciding whether to remove it; the test did not remove workspace files.

What this test covered

Recorded on 2026-10-20: P4V, version 242.63.1, machine-wide, MSI, winget package Perforce.P4V. The evidence comes from an ARM64 Windows test environment and a development build of Mole. It does not certify the current downloadable package or removal of real signed-in accounts, synchronized data or production projects.
