Just find the directory where it is installed, and delete it. On my PC it's in C:texlive2017. Tex Live doesn't do anything "sneaky" like playing with the Windows Registry, installing stuff in Windows directories, etc. If you really want to get rid of every last trace of it, delete it from your environment PATH variable as well, but the overhead of not doing that is completely negligible.
