Latest News About How To Uninstall League Of Legends

Here are the latest general steps to uninstall League of Legends and Riot Client on Windows and macOS.

• Windows (most common):

  • Open Settings or Control Panel, go to Apps or Programs and Features.
  • Locate League of Legends and Riot Client (and Riot Vanguard if listed). Uninstall both.
  • After uninstall completes, remove leftover files:
  • Delete the Riot Games folder (usually C:\Riot Games or C:\Program Files\Riot Games).
  • Clear caches: %localappdata%\Riot Games and %appdata%\Riot Games (paste paths in Run or File Explorer to access).
  • Optional: reboot your PC to finalize removal.

• macOS:

  • Open Finder > Applications.
  • Drag League of Legends and Riot Client to the Trash.
  • Empty Trash, then remove supporting files:
  • In Finder, use Go > Go to Folder and enter ~/Library/Application Support/Riot Games and ~/Library/Preferences/com.riotgames.LeagueofLegends.plist, then delete.
  • Empty Trash again and restart if desired.

• Common post-uninstall checks:

  • Ensure no Riot Vanguard or anti-cheat remnants remain. If you see Riot Vanguard in the list, uninstall it as well.
  • Run a quick search for leftover folders named LoL, Riot, or League to remove any stray files.
