Ch0cu3r Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 hey guys i'm using command prompt to execute the following:httpd.exe -k uninstall Make sure you are running that command as Administrator (Right click cmd.exe run as Administrator). Note it only removes the Apache service. If you gave the Apache service a different name on install then you need to specify the service name with the -n flag httpd.exe -n "Apache Service Name" -k uninstall Otherwise to remove Apache you can safely delete the Apache install folder (provided Apache is not running) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
