How to uninstall / reinstall Daz Studio...?

Due to various bugs that are currently underway ("jumping viewport", jumping objects, ...), I would like to uninstall and reinstall Daz Stuio. However, it seems impossible to do that - when I try, I get Daz Studio just as it was before back when I reinstall, including all custom options (which I especially want to reset - oh, and needless to say, "reset to factory defaults" does more or less nothing, except it change the layout - all settings, including hotkeys, are preserved).

How can this program be fully uninstalled? 

And, as a side note, why is the management of such a old (as in "established") product still so dramatically difficult? Wouldn't it be a good idea to at least get the basic infrastructure up and running, before working on the newest shader technology...? Maybe there is a reason why Poser does cost money...

    There are additionals files in the Appdata folders that need to be removed for a clean install. They contain Database information and how you set up Studio and stuff. I don't have the folder name handy at the moment, but I can check them out later when i am home and have access to my PC.

    The jumping viewport and object problems is fairly new and came up with very recent versions after some Windows updates. I have 4.8 installed next to the 4.10 Beta version, and the 4.8 doesn't have the jumping stuff going on.

    But yeah, programming staff needs to be paid, and I don't know how many company programmers the current business model sustains. They are fixing things all the time, though, and I guess we will see the Beta of Studio 4.11 sometime soon. Maybe the jumping stuff will be fixed then.
