SGPortable removal from external hard drive

gw
Hello,
SGPortable* files and autorun have been pushed to my personal external drive from my work laptop.
Nothing seems to have been encrypted yet, and no pass phrase set up, but access to unencrypted files/hard drive in general already deteriorated significantly.
Would a simple deletion of the pushed files  remove all SGP functionality (including the icon) from the external or I still need to reformat the drive?
the drive has already lots of data on it so migrating the data out for the reformatting would be quite painful.
Thank you,

    All SGPortable is, is an application that allows you to open encrypted files on devices without Safeguard installed. Think of it as a bit like Winzip. It can be deleted without issue and if you haven't set a passphrase none of your other files should be effected.

    You can remove SGPortable from the drive simply by deleting the executable.

    You shouldn't notice any change in performance however.
