How to undo the "install" in compatibility administrator?

Question

After creating a fix in the Compatibility Administrator, we can go to File menu -> Install to install it.

My question is how can we undo this and restore the system to the old state?

I believe the install makes some changes to registry, I can search the GUID and it's in many places. I don't know if deleting this GUID all over is good idea because there may be other changes too. I hope there is a better way.

Uninstalll and install without it. – Antoniossss May 25 '18 at 21:01 — Antoniossss, May 25 '18 at 21:01

Once we install a shim or shim fix, it is moved to the installed databases node in compatibility administrator in the left pane tree. Right-click on the fix and select uninstall!
