having some trouble after installing texlive. I cannot open
tlshell (Problem with installation: cannot determine release!),
fmtutil raises the message that the total formats are 0. After
some research I concluded that the best idea is to remove texlive
and possibly reinstall. This causes the next issue, I cannot seem
to find a way to deinstall texlive, I do not know if this is
because of a faulty install. I would appreciate help how I can fix
these problems. I have been using texlive on linux without any
trouble, but for windows it seems extremly complicated.<br>

It would help to know which version of Windows you are using. I
will assume 7 or 10. Under Windows 7, try Start / Control Panel /
Programs and Features. Search for TeX Live 2021. Click to
highlight it, then use the Uninstall/Change option that will
manifest itself in the menu line. Under Windows 10, possibly
something similar.<br>
