Assuming that you are running the original version (ie the one currently available on this site), it doesn't install, so you cannot uninstall it. You can just delete it.

Run the free version of Revo Uninstaller and see what that says. You would need to install that program.

I did some checking on my system.
One out of three uninstalls has proven to leave some of the Circle Dock Files behind.

I had to Uninstall the program (to get the error). This did indeed uninstall some stuff.
I then had to go into the C Drive (C:/) and then to the "Program Files" (C:/Program Files)
Then delete the "CircleDock" Folder.
I also had to go into the "AppData" Folder and then to the "Local" Folder, and find and delete the "CircleDock" Folder there as well.
Once this was done I also deleted The Desktop Icon, checked to make sure that there was not any shortcuts in my "Startup" File, and deleted the shortcuts in the "All Programs" Folder.

I restarted me system, and went to Control Panel, and check the uninstall/Install programs window and found that the program had been removed.

I know that this version of Circle Dock also makes a registry entry, but I am unsure of where and what, and I never advise anyone to make a systems registry change lightly.

Since I am unaware of your Operating system (ie. Windows XP, Vista, & 7) and whether you are 32 or 64 bit, I am sorry I can not give somewhat clearer directions.

I hope this helps.

If you have additional questions or issues, let us know friend ;)
