OK try this - use ctrl+alt+delete to go to the Taskmanager and end the task on any instances of Sky Go running. I had it running 4 times in the background!
Then if you have the Sky Go icon on your desktop, right click it and choose Open File Location. This will open a folder and the path there will be something like C>users>[your name]> Roaming>SKY>SKYGO. Go up a+two levels so you are looking at Roaming and highlight then delete the SKY folder.
Then go to the download page and download a fresh Sky Go Installer. Run it and it should go all the way through to sign in.
I checked beforehand and the uninstaller package and proper bits weren't in the registery so I wasn't able to uninstall properly, hence the delete.

Re: Unable to Run SkyGo nor uninstall
I'm having this exact issue except I can't see any skygo files to delete. Get the same messages when I try to uninstall. Also can't install as it says it's having issues replacing the files.
So annoying. Can anyone please help?
Many thanks in advance
