On Windows I get the following error when uninstalling the plugin:

If I navigate to the keytar.node file in File Explorer, I am able to delete it without being prompted for admin access. After doing that, I am able to run the uninstall command successfully.

I got this same error, but I simply reissued the uninstall command and it worked the second time. The problem could be intermittent.
