Manually Uninstall Notepad ++

I recently tried to uninstall Notepad ++, but after uninstall the link when a document is right clicked still appears, yet it gives the error it could not find Notepad ++. So my question is: Is there a way to remove that? Possibly by going through a manual uninstall?

its going to always do that because notpad ++ is in your reg files you could use a registry cleaner thoughI dont erecomend them back up the registry I have had most of them crash the computer there is no such thing asa safe bet when playing with the reg files err On the side of caution.

eve though the link is removed the program is also still being used by default so that to could need changing it is a txt editor so it was linkedto everything in sure ...
