OPTION 1:
if you dont need to backup and/or save any websites or mysql database(s) you just need to download the latest version of wamp. uninstall wamp. make sure you delete the c:\wamp directory. restart your pc, and install wamp.
OPTION 2:
if you have any websites you need to save, make a backup of the c:\wamp\www folder. if your mysql database you need to save, open up phpmyadmin and export your tables and data to an .sql file. uninstall wamp. delete the c:\wamp folder. restart pc. install the latest wamp. start wamp, open up phpmyadmin and import your backed up data
if your .sql file is larger then 2 megabytes you will need to change the upload_max_filesize setting in your php.ini ( c:\wamp\apache2\bin\php.ini ) file to upload a large file.
find:
upload_max_filesize = 2M
change to
upload_max_filesize = 50M
save the file, restart apache for the changes to take effect. now import your database into phpmyadmin. for security reasons you should change upload_max_filesize back to 2M.
if you do not have any data in your mysql database you need to protect then just uninstall wamp, delete the c:\wamp folder, restart pc, install the latest version of wamp.
you should now be up and running.
