Is that word "lingering". If so, do you mean that Python did not 
uninstall properly - or do you mean that the reinstalled version is slow 
to operate?

Not understanding the question, I threw it into ChatGPT:-

If you are experiencing issues uninstalling Python 3.11.3 from your 
machine, here are a few steps you can try to resolve the problem:

     Restart your computer: Sometimes, a simple restart can help resolve 
issues related to the uninstallation process.

     Use an uninstaller tool: You can try using a third-party 
uninstaller tool to remove Python 3.11.3 from your system. These tools 
are designed to thoroughly remove programs, including any leftover files 
or registry entries. Some popular uninstaller tools include Revo 
Uninstaller, IObit Uninstaller, and Geek Uninstaller.

     Manual uninstallation: If the above steps don't work, you can try 
manually uninstalling Python 3.11.3. Here's how you can do it:
         Open the "Programs and Features" or "Apps & Features" section 
in your computer's control panel.
         Locate Python 3.11.3 in the list of installed programs.
         Click on Python 3.11.3 and select the "Uninstall" or "Remove" 
option.
         Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the 
uninstallation process.
         After the uninstallation is complete, you may also want to 
delete any remaining Python-related folders or files from your system. 
These are typically located in the "C:\Python3.11" directory.

Please note that manually deleting files from your system can be risky 
if you're not familiar with the process. Be cautious and ensure that 
you're deleting the correct files associated with Python 3.11.3.

Once you have successfully uninstalled Python 3.11.3, you can proceed 
with reinstalling it on your machine. Make sure to download the 
installer from the official Python website (https://www.python.org) and 
follow the installation instructions provided.

If the uninstallation process appears to be successful, but you are 
experiencing slow loading of the "Programs and Features" section in the 
control panel, there might be a few possible reasons for this issue. 
Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem:

     Wait for a while: Sometimes, the uninstallation process might take 
some time to complete all the necessary tasks, especially if it's a 
large program like Python. It's possible that the program is still 
finalizing its uninstallation in the background. Give it some time and 
see if the "Programs and Features" section starts responding normally 
after a few minutes.

     Restart your computer: Restarting your computer can help resolve 
any lingering processes or system issues that may be causing the slow 
loading of the "Programs and Features" section. After restarting, try 
accessing the control panel again and see if the problem persists.

     Check for other processes or services: It's possible that other 
processes or services running on your computer are causing a slowdown. 
Close any unnecessary applications and check if there are any 
resource-intensive processes running in the background. You can open the 
Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) to check for any unusually high CPU or 
memory usage.

     Check for system errors: Run a scan for system errors using the 
built-in Windows System File Checker (SFC) tool. Open a Command Prompt 
as an administrator and run the command: sfc /scannow. This will scan 
your system for any corrupted or missing system files and attempt to 
repair them.

     Reinstall Python: If the issue persists, you can try reinstalling 
Python 3.11.3 again after performing the above steps. Make sure to 
follow the official installation instructions and download the installer 
from the official Python website (https://www.python.org).

If none of the above steps resolve the slow loading issue, there might 
be underlying system issues causing the problem. You may consider 
seeking further assistance from a technical expert or your system 
administrator to diagnose and resolve the issue.


NB I do not use MS-Windows (which is an assumption - not stated in OP), 
and thus cannot vouch for the veracity of this advice, nor for its 
accuracy - caveat emptor!

Hope one of those sets of ideas will help...
- will be interested to hear how you get on...
