Absolutely not, I'm sorry to say. That may be how you uninstall a program on a Mac, but on Windows, it leaves a nightmarish web-like hierarchy of files all over your system in a horrific mess of DLLs, registry entries, and other terrifying clutter in about sixty-five places other than the one you selected when you installed it. You really need to use a program's official uninstaller when removing a program -- especially for something as complicated as Adobe software (which would leave even more files all over the system than an ordinary application).
Also, in response to your reasons why you can't do a fresh install:
1) find one and make it work, and
2) suck it up.
