Default REMOVE XP

Hi Joe --
Restore and Recovery are not viable options. I don't have a System
Manual -- the computer was put together by a shop down the street. It
didn't come with any software pre-installed.
I'd sure like to take a look at your software manual. Is theer any
chance you could describe the procedure here?
I'm thinking of deleting all the files that say "Microsoft" on them.
That will leave a bunch of other files -- some without any company name.
By the way -- is there a way to indicate who is installing files in my C
folders? Like with the Mac -- you could color-code them.

And as for Jane Doh -- I killfiled her ages ago.

Recovery..Some manufacturers ( I have HP ) use a
partition to store the original Operating System in it's
original condition..There is a proceedure to manually
uninstall Windows XP without losing your Data Files. This
procedure is in my HP Manual..If you have a different
brand/model your proceedure may be different...Check your
Manual...If you reformat your hard drive without Backup
of Data you will lose everything. I am certainly no
expert but if I can be of further help let me know.

How do I simply remove XP? I understand that once it's installed,
you can't uninstall it. So how do I manually uninstall?

No you didn't, since you can't even spell the name correctly.
