Using the X3 uninstaller will remove plug-ins and possibly shared files needed by CbB.

 

It is possible to manually remove the parts of X3 not used by CbB or other Cakewalk DAWs but as noted above it will not free up much disk space,

IIRC, the full install of X3 excluding plug-ins, loop and shared files uses ~1.2 GB.

Of that ~90% is "Cakewalk Content" and almost all of that is in the X3 tutorial folder.

Deleting tutorials and sample projects from Cakewalk Content returns most of the disk space used by the DAW.

 

Another place to clean up are the minidump folders. These are located in the user folders for CbB and all the Cakewalk DAWs.

For example, the full path to the minidump folder for CbB is "%appdata%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\MiniDumps"

Check each Cakewalk DAW folder in "%appdata%\Cakewalk" and delete the contents of the minidump folders.
