http.uri and process.pid Files

You may remove the http.uri and process.pid files in the following folder:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Aspera\Aspera Connect\var\run\

Database File

If you previously installed Aspera Connect for all users (i.e., system-wide), then when uninstalling, you will only be able to remove the Connect database for the current user. Thus, to remove this database file (connectdb.data), you need to locate the following directory for each additional user account:

C:\Users\<username>\.aspera\connect\

You may alternatively delete the entire .aspera directory after uninstalling Aspera Connect, if desired.
