It seems a shame that you'd want to delete an extension that can protect your browsing against so much.
Care to share your reasons and be open to persuasion?
It's a steep learning curve for most who install NoScript, but after a few days it *does* get easier.
Plus, even if you don't block any scripting or plugins, there are some very valuable "under-the-radar" protections that NoScript gives any browser.

I'll tell you why I want to uninstall NoScript, and quote one of the alt JS addons to Firefox " Firefox is safe enough, NoScript is being paranoid" ad from Annoyed. I installed it because Scripts were constantly stalling my desktop and it would take me looking around to find out a echoing drop down was warning that a JS was tilting everything, BUT NOW I'M SPENDING TWICE THAT AMOUNT OF TIME TELLING THIS ANNOYING Add on to let me into my online world, Page after page after page ad infinitum. I don't code and don't even understand JS but i do know how much time I'm wasting trying to navigate a layer of protection number infinity, that is effective at stopping me doing anything, but is ding little to prevent hackers, except the victims, may not make the log in because we're too bust trying to access our own accounts, and resetting passwords for the 300th time today!

I recommend keeping NoScript, even if you allow scripts globally. You'll still be protected from clickjacking/likejacking, cross-site scripting, cross-zone attacks, etc.
However, there are instructions for uninstalling in the FAQ:
