This time,"DeepL TranslatorHere's what to do if "Translate with DeepL" doesn't disappear from the right-click menu even after uninstalling "DeepL".
When you install DeepL Translation, it writes information about the right-click menu to the registry.
Additionally, the necessary files will be copied to a folder on the C: drive.
This registry information and file location will change depending on whether you install using the normal "Install" or "All Users" button.
Generally, when you uninstall software, registry values and files are also deleted, but there is software, such as "DeepL Translation," that does not delete some information.

Delete files remaining after uninstalling "DeepL Translation"
Files remaining after uninstallation are located in the following folder:
If you did a standard installation:
C:\Users\ユーザー名\AppData\Local
If you installed from the "All Users" button:
C:\ProgramData
Within each folder there will be a folder called "0install.net".
This "0install.net" folder is the folder that remains after uninstalling "DeepL Translation".
There are several folders and files inside, but they are all unnecessary, so you can delete the entire "0install.net" folder.
Also, the file size is very small, about 350KB, so there is no problem even if you do not delete it.
If you can't delete a folder
*Please be sure to uninstall "DeepL Translation" before proceeding. If you try to delete it without uninstalling it, it will say that the file is in use and you will not be able to delete it.
Open a command prompt as an administrator, type the following command, and press Enter:
If you did a standard installation:
icacls %userprofile%\AppData\Local\0install.net\implementations /t /q /c /reset
If you installed from the "All Users" button:
icacls C:\ProgramData\0install.net\implementations /t /q /c /reset
When you see the message "* files processed successfully. 0 files could not be processed" as shown in the image below, close the command prompt.
The "0install.net" folder can now be deleted, so try deleting it again.
*If you are unable to delete the file after executing the command, please restart your PC and then try deleting it.
The reason it could not be deleted was because the "implementations" folder in the "0install.net" folder is an implementation cache, and the files in this folder had their permissions changed to read-only.
