--- Comment #13 from Francisca <[email protected]> --- Thanks, tried part of it, never found any of those folders after uninstalling, so I give up. Anyway, that link kdenlive-25.12.2_standalone.exe 10 seems to e for Windows 10 and I have 11. Great that this software is free, but it should not be this difficult to install and uninstall and anyway, that option to click on that link, never appeared, the thing only asks if you want to install it and where, not which version!
