Can we please be able to remove Horizons?

In previous version I've deleted my 'other alpha/beta' manually, no problems doing so.
I guess you can delete this folder:
(only the last folder there, not all of it) and then leave 'elite-dangerous-odyssey-64' be.
When I've deleted mine, in previous cleanups, it gave me the option to install them again if I wanted.

you can call a shuttle.
You don't need to manually delete folders usually for live versions of the game. I can't check right now because I'm installing Oddyssey, but normally you can just select the version of the game in the launcher that you want to uninstall (just like you would when launching to play, but don't click Play), and then go to "Options" -> "Uninstall Game" in the launcher.
No need to manually delete folders usually (unless it's an alpha/beta that no longer pops up in the launcher, but that's not the case here as far as I know).

Really? Thanks for that dude.
Odyssey just finished installing so I checked, and yeah the option to uninstall the game is still there in the launcher (it will uninstall whatever you have selected from the list next to Play)
Doesn’t help with being yeeted into space from a concourse, or stuck on a shuttle that you can’t exit.
Come on, that won't happen in the release version.
I read on the internet that this is really a beta.
This doesn't work with Steam. Unless I've missed something. And no options to uninstall the alpha either. Not in Steam, the launcher (that starts from Steam) or Windows uninstaller.
I'm using Steam myself, and even though I installed Elite Dangerous via Steam, I just performed the Odyssey update outside of Steam via the launcher (EDLaunch.exe).
Steam still tried to install the Odyssey DLC for a while, but after I disabled the Odyssey DLC in Steam it stopped trying to download Odyssey and I could still start it from my launcher.
There is no real difference between Steam and non-Steam here I believe, any method will install the game in the Products folder.
The alpha/beta files you need to remove manually after the alpha/beta disappears from the list (from the Products folder in your Steam game folder or wherever you installed the game without Steam).
As long as the alpha/beta still shows up in the list, the uninstall option should work.
You can get a new ssd (240Gb - Crucial BX 500) for under £30 from Amazon.
(That's a SATA connection)
That's big enough for the Horizons and Odyssey data - and will really improve response times!

Thanks dude, but at the moment things are rough. Dratted virus.
Bit tired so I'm not really following you here. Personally I had no problem installing it. It updated automatically. But I, as I wrote, don't have any options to uninstall certain parts of the game; Horizon, Odyssey or Alpha.
That's what im saying. We should have those options. ED need a slimming program.
How come you have both 32 and 64 bit versions installed?You do not have this option?
