Ren'Py is a popular visual novel engine used for creating and playing interactive stories, particularly in the visual novel genre. If you're looking to uninstall Ren'Py, I'll provide a detailed review of the process and the engine itself.
| OS | Main folder | Config folder | Project default | |----|-------------|---------------|------------------| | Windows | Anywhere (e.g., Downloads) | %APPDATA%\RenPy | Inside main folder | | macOS | Anywhere | ~/Library/RenPy | Inside main folder | | Linux | Anywhere | ~/.renpy | Inside main folder |
If you are a developer, uninstalling the Ren'Py engine will automatically delete your game projects.
