Blizzard Battle.net is the home of some of the most popular online games around, including the Battle.net 2.0 favorites, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, and Call of Duty. Blizzard Entertainment Inc has been developing these games ever since Battle.net was launched back in 1996.
Ever since 2008, the parent company for Blizzard Games has been Blizzard Activision. Blizzard Activision also owns Major League gaming, as well as several other subsidiaries.
If you’re a keen user of Blizzard Battle.net games, then you’ll know that they can take up a lot of space on your laptop, and that means that you’ll sometimes want to remove a game so that you can install another game. We’re going to have a look now at two different methods so that you can uninstall a Blizzard Battle.net game from your gaming laptop. Let’s go.
Method One – How to Uninstall Blizzard Games Through the Blizzard Battle.net App
The easiest way to uninstall a Blizzard Battle.net game is through the Blizzard Battle.net app. You’ll have this installed so that you can download and play Blizzard Entertainment Inc. games. This app requires you to log in with your Battletag user email address.

Now that you’ve opened the Blizzard Battle.net app, you will see a list of all the Blizzard Battle.net games that you currently have installed on your device. Click on the tab for the game that you want to uninstall. Then you should click on ‘options.’ Now you will see a list of options, one of which will be ‘Uninstall.’ You just need to select ‘Uninstall,’ and the game will remove itself from your computer.
This method to uninstall a blizzard game will work for Windows users, as well as Mac users. If you have a Mac, you’ll need to log into the app with your user Battletag name and user Battletag code. If you have Windows, you’ll need to do this too.
Method Two – How to Uninstall Blizzard Games Manually Through Control Panel
Some users of Blizzard Battle.net games might have difficulties with the previous method when they try to uninstall the game. One problem that people run into is that all the files are not uninstalled with the game. This next method will allow you to uninstall the game in the same way you uninstall a program.
You first need to open the control panel on your Windows computer. Once you’ve opened it, then you want to locate the page that’s titled: ‘Uninstall a Program.’ Click on it. And then you’ll have a list of programs that are installed on your computer.
