How do I uninstall fallout London?

[Fries]

I loved fallout London, but I'm ready to go back to regular Fallout 4 for a while and try some other mods I've found. The problem is that whenever I try to start a new game it crashes just after character creation. I've already uninstalled the game from GOG and did a fresh install of Fallout 4 and that didn't work, so now I'm just going through the files and manually deleting anything that looks obviously London related. Any Ideas ion what I should have done, or what files I should be looking for?

uninstalling via gog, or Steam, will not delete left over mod files so uninstall the game then go to the Fallout 4 game folder and delete that by hand

What do you mean by "just after character creation"? Is it crashing on the way to the vault, shortly before the little wooden bridge? If so, the weapon debris setting may have been enabled when you did the fresh install. That can cause crashes with certain video cards.

But if you did a fresh install, there shouldn't be any London related files. You should have manually deleted any leftover files from those folders before you reinstalled. Reinstalling the game with those files left there won't really do anything helpful.

I'm crashing in the bathroom, just after the camera switches from third to first person. Also I did have weapon derbies turned on so I'll make sure to turn those off.

These are the recommendations from the Fallout London team in addition to removing the Fallout 4 game folder:

Once Fallout 4 is uninstalled as an extra precaution, nuke Fallout 4 from orbit by:
Deleting the Fallout 4 folder in: Documents\My games\
Deleting the Fallout 4 folder in: Users\*YourUserName*\AppData\Local\
This ensures Fallout 4 is completely cleaned from your computer.

You might want to make backups of your save games in the documents\my games\fallout 4 folder.

The main .esm from Fallout 4 is disabled with regard to scripting and quest states. This is done on purpose for the stability of the mod and legal reasons. (no original VA permissions) It is not possible to revert an installation to playable vanilla without a re-installation.

You want to follow Charon's advice above and remove every single file from the current game. To add to this, you want to first disable, uninstall any mods you had in your mod manager for Fallout London because the metadata will impact your next installation otherwise. Especially something as aggressive as Vortex, if you used that.

It should take a minute or so extra, minus the usual installation, of course, and it saves you headaches.
