To clean up the Code Sight configuration files (Visual Studio)

Code Sight saves information in a folder with a number of configuration files. After you uninstall the plug-in, you might want to remove this.

In a command window, delete C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\BlackDuck\desktop\.

Some sites might install the desktop\ folder in a custom location. If it is not in the default location shown here, consult your system administrator.
