I have Apache 2.4 and PHP installed, and I want to remove them in order to install WAMP. I can't find the Apache or PHP uninstallers, not inside any of the folders, and it's not even in "add/remove programs".
Does anybody know what can be done in order to remove both without leaving garbage?

Ramhound over 9 yearsI am not aware that Apache uses anything outside its installation folder. But I personally would just install both again, then uninstall it, if you really want to run the uninstall executable.
