Clean Reinstall of InterviewMan on Windows
One command removes every leftover InterviewMan file and cache from your Windows PC. Use it when an update fails or the app stops working correctly, then install the latest version fresh.
Last updated
When to use this
Use this when an update goes wrong: the app still shows the old version, the update keeps failing, the window opens blank, or answers stopped loading after an update.
A normal reinstall keeps your old settings and cache files, so a broken file survives the update. This command deletes them first, so the new version starts from zero.
Your account is safe. Only files on your computer are deleted. Your account, subscription, and history stay on our servers. You sign in again after reinstalling.
Run this command
You do not need to close InterviewMan first. This one command closes the app, then deletes every folder, cached installer, shortcut, and registry entry it left behind - for every account on the PC.
Right-click the Start button and choose Terminal (Admin) (on older Windows, Command Prompt (Admin) or Windows PowerShell (Admin)). The command works in any of them. Copy it below, paste it into the window (right-click pastes), and press Enter.

When it finishes you will see "InterviewMan removed."
Administrator mode matters: without it the command only cleans your own account, and an installation made for all users on the PC cannot be removed. If you cannot open an administrator window, run the command anyway. It still removes everything installed under your own account.
Now download the newest build from the download page, run the installer, and sign in with the same account. If Windows SmartScreen warns you, choose More info, then Run anyway.
Still not working?
If the problem survives a clean reinstall, it is not a cache issue. Contact support and tell us your Windows version, the app version, and what you see. Our team replies fast.
On a Mac instead? Follow the Mac clean reinstall guide.
