How to uninstall tool from .YXI Install?

Has anyone ever had to uninstall a tool they installed via the yxi extension? I installed a tool that is a little buggy and I am having trouble uninstalling it as this field is quite new. I cannot find where in Alteryx the tool was actually installed, which is quite surprising as one would expect the tool to have a folder in the Program folder. I am trying to avoid uninstalling and reinstalling Alteryx itself.

@ejogion you should be able to just delete the folder here: 

C:\Users\<<YOUR ID>>\AppData\Roaming\Alteryx\Tools\<<TOOL NAME>>

where YOUR ID and TOOL NAME are unique to your situation.

Ah, you are correct. Thank you!

If the tool has been installed for all Windows users, then the install location will be 

\ProgramData\Alteryx\Tools
