Removing a Pirated (Portable) Software

not long ago, needed use after effects , premiere pro college course. went , looked cheapest deal find.

 

i stumbled upon shop said sold ae , pp extremely dirt cheap price , weren't counterfeits. shop owner told me these extremely old stocks therefore price. upon telling him use mac, told me bootcamp computer , install ae , pp me, because has stock left windows.

 

after using while, realised software not performing par. lags. pp doesn't export media @ all. ae doesn't run sometimes. pp doesn't run.

 

i tried check program files see if there error there, , horror... there isn't there. after hours of googling, realised software portable software, never heard about. , it's pirated, too.

 

since google said portable softwares can uninstalled deleting folder in, did exactly. still see there cache folders lying around, , deleted too.

 

however, i'm still worried if there remnants of software left in windows partition. understand software have written folders or made new folders on computer, want know how remove them completely?

 

i bought genuine copy of production premium cs6 mac, btw. i'm little paranoid install it. of pirated files windows partition somehow corrupt or unlegitimize legit software on mac partition? or should install legit software without fear, , deal removing folders/files generated pirated copy @ later time?

mac partitions hfs formatted. without help, windows can't read them less write them, including malicious tools. , code not executed. not binary compatible or fail terribly 'nix based security management. you're worrying on nothing. worst thing happen fishy javascript in browser cache, not come windows side of things... if you're realyl worried, nuke win partition bootcamp , reinstall it.
