Yes, with a few caveats.
Audacity must be closed before you do that.
You may not want to remove your Chains or custom EQ curves.
In that case deleting audacity.cfg in the application data folder
is sufficient.
If you still have Audacity 1.2 settings in the Windows Registry,
1.2 settings that still exist in Audacity 2.x will be observed, so
it won't be a factory reset. Uninstalling 1.2 does not remove
those 1.2 settings.
To ensure a factory reset if you have 1.2 settings, open
audacity.cfg and replace all its text with the following
NewPrefsInitialized=1
Or, run the Windows installer and reset preferences, which
performs NewPrefsInitialized=1.
