Click on AppData in the address bar to go up one level, and browse to Local. Delete the Minion folder in Local.

Click on your username in the address bar to go up two levels to your user folder. Delete the .minion folder in there.

To recap, delete the following folders:

  • C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\gg.minion.Minion
  • C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Minion
  • C:\Users\yourname\.minion

A reboot wouldn't hurt at this point.

Now it's time to install Minion again. Follow the instructions in the Getting Started page to install Minion.
