Title says it all.

I would like to completely remove WAMP from the system and registry so that I can install a fresh copy with no settings altered or with the default settings.

I checked this topic [forum.wampserver.com] and am wondering if besides the services WAMP does leave any other traces on the system or C or in the registry that I should know of?

What is the best way to completely remove WAMP please?

Thank you.

Hi,

Uninstall Wampserver.
The only things in registry are the two services
- wampapache & wampmysqld for 32 bit
- wampapache64 & wampmysqld64 for 64 bit
So, if services are not removed by uninstall, you have to suppress its by command windows

sc delete wampapache
sc delete wampmysqld

Then delete wamp fonder.
That's all
