If you installed Python on Windows, you probably have 'pythonwin' installed as well, under 'site-packages'. This is like the command line interpreter but better, which has code completion. Not as powerful as an IDE, but better than the command line, with no additional software to install.
Visual Studio is like most Microsoft solutions in that it is big and clunky and almost impossible to completely remove. It is great if you program in multiple languages, but overkill if your only interested in one.
The best way is to read the documentation.
There will always be residual directories/files (in Linux think 'orphans'). However, these result in minor disk usage, so if you had to re-image a disk, it sounds like you had or have bigger problems.
