Finally un-installed chrome on Windows.

A friend of mind in IT suggested revouninstaller. I have never used it in practice but he says it might be helpful in this case.
I use that everytime I go to uninstall something. You can configure it to scan your system registry and local files for residual files that the software's uninstaller won't remove.
