UPDATE: Jump to #3687 (comment)

I've used the windows .exe installer to install DVC, but now I can't find it in the "add or remove programs" screen in the Control Panel.

However, this page reads:

You may use Windows Uninstaller to remove the program.

I think this line should either contain a more accurate description of how to uninstall, or not be present.

I'll remove the note from docs for now... In iterative/dvc.org#1195

@fabiosantoscode IIRC, it is called Data Version Control there. Might want to rename it to DVC, for sure.
