UNINSTALLING THE OTOSURE PROGRAM
Uninstalling the Otosure program is achieved simply by navigating to the location where the software was
originally installed and deleting the file named “Otosure.exe”. There is no need to use the “Add or Remove
Programs” utility.
This will leave Audibase installed.
