Assuming you have Windows and a PC, go to "Start"  usually located in the lower left hand side of the screen), then click on "Control Panel" in the popup menu (should be in the right hand column). When that opens, click on "Add or Remove Programs", then wait for the programs list to populate. Scroll down, click on "SecondLifeWindlight(removeonly)" and click on the "Remove" button. It will ask you to confirm that you want to remove it. Confirm that. After this is done, it helps to go to "Start", then "My Computer", then "Hard Drive", then "Documents and Settings" then "  your name)" then "Application Data", then find the "Second Life" folder and click it once. Then to the left of the window is a big red "X". Click on it to delete the Second Life folder (this will delete your Second Life cache, which sometimes is the problem with crashes). Once that's deleted, empty your trash bin and restart the computer.

simple follow what Sansa said or just go into "C:\Program Files\SecondLifeWindLight and delete that directory there is a few files in C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\SecondLife\user_settings but they are tiny xml settings files and you can leave them. If you are having preference issues with SL's WL then go in there and remove the files named 'windlight....' you cant miss them.
