In Start -> Programs do you have a JBuilder option?
If you have one that should show up in Add/Remove.
Also, I have seen softwares which have their own
uninstall option. If nothing is avail, I would delete
the folder (which may be dangerous).
My two cents.

Man, it was hard to find info on how to uninstall JBuilder... Borland must think that it is so great that you will never want to get rid of it...
But here's a link that describes what to do.
HTH,

Thanks Nate. I had installed JBuilder and a couple other IDEs previously, but when I uninstalled, I did have all kinds of problems. Luckily, I had to rebuild the machine later anyhow, and that definitely removed it from the hard drive.

I have JBuilder4 - I just looked in C:\JBuilder4 and found a file release_notes.html, which described the procedure:
Locate the directory where JBuilder was installed.
Delete the JBuilder directory.
Delete the .jbuilder4 directory:
Linux: in your home directory.
Solaris: in your home directory.
Windows: in Windows directory (for Windows 98) or your home directory (for Windows NT). Also, delete the items in the Start menu: Start|Programs|JBuilder 4|right-click|Delete.
I suspect this is missing something though. For example, .java files may still be associated with JBuilder, so you'd want to change that. Good luck...
