Uninstalling on Windows

To uninstall from a Windows platform, use the Windows control panel.

Note: These steps are written for Windows 10. The exact labels, commands, and navigation could vary on other versions of Windows.
Note:

To completely uninstall the product you must use this procedure. Deleting the installation directory is not sufficient, and could cause instability of future installations. Complete uninstallation is required whether upgrading to a different version or a different edition of the product.

Procedure

  1. Open the Windows "Apps & features" panel.
    To navigate, open the Settings panel, click System, then click "Apps & features."
  2. Select the sub-components to uninstall.
    Note: The release number embedded in the name of the core sub-component differs from the other sub-components. It corresponds to the Apache Kafka release number, rather than the TIBCO Messaging - Apache Kafka Distribution release number.
  3. Click Uninstall.
