100% Uninstall

[Starlight]

How to I compleetly wipe out this game for a fresh install???

Why when I uninstall this game it still remain files I DON"T F WANT.

I made some ♥♥♥♥ with mods and can not recover to fresh install BECAUSE THE GAME thinks when I say compleetly ♥♥♥♥ out of my system it still thinks I am not sure.

So when I reinstall the game many options are still left from my old install.

What is wrong with this people, what are they not understanding about delete this game?
Why are they going to decide for me how sure I am about deleting this game?

I am missing a file called of building themes. xml that does not reinstall again when I do it, and don't be a fckiing smartass by posting the file and how easy it is to get and I shouldnt be complaing.

How do you COMPLEETLY ERASE this game from your pc? without getting permission from sertain people wheter you are 100% sure about it or not!

Go here C:\Steam\steamapps\common and in the Common folder find the Cities Skylines folder and delete it. Then try to do a reinstall of this.

If need be and if you have a 2nd hard drive or have a 2nd partition. Create a Steam folder on the additional hard drive/other partition and then try to install this game into that folder.

Most likely some files are being sent to the Steam Cloud.

1. @OP: PLEASE CALM DOWN!!!
2. Google is your friend!!!
3. None of the answers here is helping you! (But @Ajito: tbh that was incredible funny :D)

Fresh install? Here you go:

Open the Game, open content manager.
On the left click the last point "Steam Workshop" and then the upcoming button "unsubscribe all", CLOSE the Game!
!!!WARNING!!! THIS UNSUBSCRIBES REALLY FROM ALL ITEMS YOU EVER DOWNLOADED (Mods, Assets, LUTs...)

If you did anything right, open STEAM Client and go to the Cities Skylines Workshop page: You can see your Avatar on the right side and near it the text "your files" with a little "down arrow"! Mouse over the arrow and click on the last entry "subscribed items" (if the field on the left is EMPTY, anything is good"

Now in STEAM Client uninstall the Game!

Go to folder: STEAM/SteamApps/common and delete the "Cities_Skylines" Folder
Go to folder: c:/user/YOURNAME/AppData/Local/ DELETE "Colossal Order" Folder
(If you can't see "AppData" Folder then "unhide" it)

Back to STEAM Client: Install the Game, start the Game, start setting everything up (All OPTIONS settings are gone!)
PLAY from scratch!

Yea somehow worked by unsubscribing to mods in game menu, I have tried to reinstall the game like 5 times with different things like uninstall programms to erase traces etc, thing was also that mods didnt load anymore with my previou attempts so somethng was realy wrong, so unsubsribing and subscribing didnt had any effect only it showed at workshop items tab but not at mod, asset tabs etc.
Now unsubscirbing before deinstall has somehow fixed this, and now I can actualy activate mods in my game, thnx for the help. (this is realy bad)

On the other site it is always fun sertain people living in caves finding a way into the forum posting stuff because there life is no interesting, it is just to diffecult to prevent smartass answers, u prob have to point out all the concepts individually, now u can complain about my grammer, you are the lowest of lowest because in fact, you have nothing else...

now go diss ur siss

what was wrong with me 3 years ago? probably a lot xD
I think I thought I was hardcore trolled becuase I was pretty salty in my post, and did the whole tutorial and it didn't work, I think I didn't read correctly.

Good it worked out for you :)

Thank you for your help. Unfortunately (now in year 2024) I already removed Cities from my STEAM. When I reloaded it, it would not start, kept spinning looking for something .. Then nothing. NOW WHAT? I love this simulation.

You should create your own thread rather than necro an old one, especially since it seems to be unrelated to the original post.

If you used mods before, and are trying to load an old save, or starting a new city while subscribed to your old mods, chances are there is a mod issue preventing the save from loading up.

Abandoned mods that do not work anymore, broken mods, incompatibility issues, etc.

In this case, best bet would be to unsubscribe to everything and start from scratch.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
