How do I uninstall a game in DOSBox? I installed Daggerfall and when I did that I couldn't install it with "huge" install size so I watched a tutorial and noticed that I didn't write mount c:\directory -freesize 1000. I figured that's what I did wrong.

So now I want to reinstall the game but I don't know how. Can I have some help, please?

Thanks!

Edit: I really seem to be alone with this issue. I can't find any info on uninstalling games anywhere!

Go to the game folder in Windows Explorer.
Drag the mouse cursor over the game folder so that the folder is highlighted.
Right-click (the far right button on your mouse) the folder with your mouse and choose delete.
Press "Yes" or "OK" when prompted to delete your game.
Your game is now "uninstalled".

Dos games are uninstalled by simply removing the directory where they are installed, at least that is what I have always done and never got any problems.
