In this order:

1) Exit from the manager.
2) Use the Windows Uninstall program to remove BOINC.
3) Delete the BOINC folder.

If you\'ve tried to delete the folder before running Add/Remove programmes, you\'ve probably broken the Windows uninstaller. Reinstall the software then uninstall via Add/Remove programmes if uninstall no longer works.
