Uninstalling
There is no uninstall option for this utility, however it is very small and only uses Microsoft certified components. If you install it and don't like it, simply delete the folder that you have installed it to.
Updating to the latest version
If you have already installed the software and want to update to the latest version, do the following:
• Right-click on the Wallpaper Manager icon in the system tray and choose Close
• Download and install the latest version as though you didn't already have it on your computer
(ie. unzip it to C:\TEMP and run the SETUP.EXE again)
The installation routine will automatically start up the latest version of the software. Note that if you removed the default wallpapers from the list, reinstallation will put them back into the list.
