Completely uninstalling PHP


Recommended Posts

I forgot to add a restore point before trying to set my PC up with php, apache and MySQL. The install didn't work, and now that I'm trying to uninstall php I keep getting a 2343 error when it tries to write ini files values. It won't let me repair or change the settings either.

Does anyone have any idea how I can manually completely remove php so I can start a fresh install?

Thanks

Good point!

Windows XP Media Centre.

I also made IIS active, then inactive again as I realised the guide I had to configuring it was out of date, and then installed and uninstalled Apache. Both Apache and PHP were the latest versions available.

Hope this is enough info.

To un-install PHP just delete the PHP folder - thats it. However once PHP is un-installed you will need to de-configure your http server to stop it loading PHP

If you have IIS and Apache installed only enable one you cannot run both at same time (best to unistall IIS IMO - you can install IIS again if you wish via Add/Remove programs in the Control Panel). I prefer Apache myself.
