Retrieving folders (0%)

I never got Kontact running satisfactorily on this laptop (Windows 7)
so I decided to remove it and re-install it.  Now I can't get any of
it to run at all.  I have created the accounts in Akonadi Personal
Information Manager.  The IMAP account, for instance, said for a long
time that it had made a connection to my googlemail account, but then
it said "Retrieving folders (0%)" and has been like that all night.
Similarly I can't get either contacts or calendar to work.

On poking around, I see that there are a bunch of pim-related akonadi
files that still bear the day May 2013, so clearly removing the pim
application didn't remove them, and I suspect they could be at least
part of the problem.  I would re-name them, but am not absolutely sure
which ones I need to rename, nor how easy it is to get them
re-created.  There appears to be around 40 candidates.

What's the best way of cleaning out and getting a clean Kontact install?

To be honest, much as I'd love to get Kontact working properly, I'd
settle for the moment if I could get KAddressBook working with std.vcf
- - that's the most urgent bit.  There is information there that I don't
have anywhere else.
