Reset or Delete Application Data in Windows 10

If you are having problems with an application in Windows loading incorrect (or buggy settings) and re-installing the program isn’t helping the issue, try manually deleting the application data. This will wipe all the saved data for the application including login details and settings. Next time you start the program you will be starting fresh!
