I was trying to uninstall Anaconda Navigator (python 3.6.4) from my windows 7. There was no uninstaller shortcut in start menu, so I went like 

Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall Python 3.6.4

But even after this uninstallation, this program left huge data in D:\Program Files(x86)\Anaconda 3(actual path of the installed files). Then, I found an uninstaller.exe in the above path and tried that too. But even after uninstallation guide shows that the software is uninstalled successfully, not a single data gets deleted. How will I be able to erase Anaconda and safely go back to the basic Python 2.7(IDLE Mode) ?

One way that worked for me was:

Doing an Explorer search for Uninstall-Anaconda.exe, and running it afterwards.
