Step 1: Right click 5KPlayer and click Exit.
Step 2: Click the Start icon.
Step 2: Click on the Control Panel from there.
Step 3: Go to Programs and then click Programs and Features to find RealPlayer, if you can’t find it, just type “RealPlayer” on the searching box and you will be able to see it.
Step 4: Right click RealPlayer and an “Uninstall” command will pop up, just click to uninstall RealPlayer from your Windows PC. And then just follow the instructions – keep clicking “Yes”.
Well, you think that’s it? Uninstalling RealPlayer on Windows is easy but not that easy, we are not done here.
Now this is what you have to do if you want to uninstall RealPlayer completely.
Step 1: Type “%appdata%” in your search box on Windows, and click search.
Step 2: Click Roam file to enter all the App files on your Windows PC.
Step 3: Find the folder named Real and then go into it to clear all the files and datas. Now you can say you have uninstalled RealPlayer for good.

Tutorial on Uninstalling RealPlayer for Mac:
Well, technically, it is RealTimes with RealPlayer for Mac, but we can also easily get rid of this whole Real Package.
Step 1: Force quiting RealTimes on your Mac.
Step 2: Go to the Applications and find RealTimes.
Step 3: Right clicking on RealTimes icon and selecting “show package contents”.
Step 4: Drag all the contents to trash can.
Step 5: Go back to the Applications and drap the icon of RealTimes to trash can.
Notes: If you worried that RealTimes not uninstalled completely on Mac, follow this steps:

2. Copy the command [killall “RealTimes”] to it and press Enter.
3. Copy the command [rm -r /Applications/RealTimes.app] to it and press Enter.
