How do I uninstall Music Creator?

Since making the switch to Sonar, I no longer need Music Creator, but there is no entry in the list of Windows programs, no uninstall feature in Command Center, and no uninstall.exe in C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Music Creator 7.
 
How do I uninstall it??

DAW: Cakewalk by Bandlab (latest version) - x64
VST: Roland Sound Canvas VA
Hardware: Roland MC50mkII Sequencer; Yamaha DGX-660 keyboard; Steinberg UR-44 Interface
OS: Windows 10 Home 64-bit

    Right-clicking the MC7 item in the Command Center does not have an uninstall option in the context menu?

    As a matter of fact it does.  I wonder how I was supposed to know about that? lol
    In 20 years of computing I've never seen anything where I had to right-click the name of a program to bring up the uninstall function.

    It is documented near the bottom of http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Music%20Creator%207&language=3&help=Introduction.27.html
     
    You will notice other functions in the context menu for SONAR in the Command Center.

    Good to know, though I'm not sure if anyone has ever had the time to read an entire manual in the hopes of finding uninstall directions. ;)  I just find it odd that there is no other indication anywhere on how to uninstall; especially there being no entry in the Windows list of programs, which is the standard way of doing things. But I do thank you for your help.  You're the messenger, I'm not shooting you. :)

    What I'm more worried about is if I have to uninstall it then re-install it.  I got the feeling when I downloaded it that it was a one time download.

    I'm afraid if I have to reinstall my OS (which I've had to do 3 times on this system already) I'm going to lose the MC7 unless I buy another download.

    The installers should still be available for download or already cached in the Command Center and available for download directly from https://www.cakewalk.com/My-Account/Products
