http.uri and process.pid Files

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

Database File

If you previously installed the Connect Browser Plug-In for all users (i.e., system-wide), then when uninstalling, you will only be able to remove the Connect Browser Plug-In 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 the Connect Browser Plug-In, if desired.
