Remove All Logos Files, Back Up Library, File Extension

I have a few questions that I cannot seem to easily find the answers to in the forum.

I installed v5 on a company computer (Windows). As such, I will have to eventually turn this computer back in, so do I just uninstall Logos in typical Windows fashion, and this will remove the program and the library? If not, please explain the proper way.

Is there a way to save the library to an external so I can just move those files to my next computer instead of downloading online (bandwidth is a premium where I live/work)? If so, how do I find the Logos library? I've looked around and cannot find a Logos folder? Also, if I can transfer files, what would be the proper sequence to do so; i.e. install Logos and then before downloading the library, find the Logos file on the new computer and move the library into the newly created library folder?

What is the file extension for the Logos library files?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Ashley - I am not a PC user, so I will let others assist you further… here is a link to the wiki about installation. It will give you some ideas about moving files to avoid downloads.

Well that link answered the big question on moving files. Thanks.

Now answer me this: if your not a PC user, how are you on this forum and use Logos? Is this some Mac vs. Windows thing? I thought a PC was a personal computer. I'm a little detached (7 years overseas), so sorry for my ignorance on this matter. Figured I would ask.

Hi Ashley,

Regarding PC, yes technically it refers to "Personal Computer." However, usage in North America has made the Apple family of computers a unique subset, to the point where for most folks PC refers to computers not built by Apple Corp. (I won't attempt to explain why or how this happened.

As to completely removing Logos5 from your work computer, the wiki article you looked at tells you where the Logos program files are stored. If you want to be extra diligent about this, after uninistalling Logos, you may want to ensure that everything there is deleted (everything in AppData\Logos\... is part of the Logos installation). I wouldn't be surprised if you found a few files as well as the directory structure left behind (though I've never uninstalled Logos, so I wouldn't know). One more place to look for files is in your Documents library under "Logos Log Files." That directory is also created by Logos when you install. You will probably want to remove the directory, unless you simply wipe everything (including your subdirectories) in your Documents folder anyway.
