Simple question - but any steps on how to remove pylint from a Windows 10 machine with Python 3.5.2 installed.

open the workspace settings file (select File > Preferences > Settings, then locate Python configuration) and edit this line as

"python.linting.pylintEnabled": false

then save the file.
