Interesting, I wonder if that was an older version or perhaps even a modified version. The uninstall instructions[1] look pretty simple to me.

If it was only that easy! Those instructions never worked for me and some other users from at least 2014.[1] Its entirely possible they send different versions for bundled installs or it was modified. The app it was bundled with got promptly deleted and never opened.
