I just can't uninstall wampserver from my computer (WIN10). When I click uninstal icon just nothing happens. I have tried reinstall and then uninstall, but always the same...nothing happens. I have tried to find some solution in forum and on net but there seems nobody have such a problem.
Any help please?

Hi,

What version of Wampserver ?
If you upate an old version of Windows to Windows 10, some uninstall process are lost.

Before uninstall, you must backup your database and local sites, otherwise, they will be lost.

- Delete all files and folders of wamp
- Delete all shortcuts related to Wampserver
- Open a command windows "as administrator"
- Type the two commands
sc delete wampapache
sc delete wampmysqld

Hi thank you for answer. I have deleted wamp folder and its files and shortcuts. Then when try to use the commands in command prompt I get this message:
The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

So what should I or can I do now?

Hi,
If it was a 64 bit version of Wampserver, services names are wampapache64 and wampmysqld64.
If answers from command windows are the same it is because services are already removed.
