    What's the best way to completely remove all Apache from my Windows XP Computer?

    Apache is not present in Add/remove programs list..

    I have a two different versions installed, when I check my process manager I see two Apache.exe's running. I'm not sure which versions I have installed, I can find out if it matters. I want to wipe it all off of my computer, b/c I don't need it anymore and therefore it's wasting my system resources.

    Thank you!

    Apache can be removed by deleting one of those directories o searching for an unistall file inside of them.

    Deleting apache that way will not harm your system and removing orphans or dependencie can be done safely with utilities such as TuneUp Utilities or Easy Cleaner by TonyArts.

    Installing Apache alone can be very frustrating so next time you want to play installing a server you can try either Abyss Web Server (www.aprelium.com) for simple tasks, or XAMPP (www.apachefriends.org) if you need full PHP/CGI/Mysql support without wasting of system resources ;)

    Hi,

    I'm trying to fully uninstall apache from my computer. You recommend that one use Easy Cleaner to remove orphans or dependencies. Which feature within Easy Cleaner do I use to accomplish this? Thanks in advance,
