How to uninstall Concrete5 from a hosting account

Permalink
I installed Concrete5 version 5.7.13 a few hours ago and have explored the the very limited possibilities available vis-a-vis my requirements.

How do I uninstall it from my hosting account.

All help will be appreciated.

Thanks and regards.

Depends on your host.
You need to delete all the files.
You need to either delete the database or truncate it if you have an account with limited databases and no ability to create/delete.

What I understand is that if I delete the relevant folder from the public html, the software will be uninstalled. Is this correct.

We have an unlimited account, and all privileges.

Yes. But you also need to clear/delete the database, which is separate to the code in the public html. There may also be a hidden .htaccess file in public html that needs to be deleted or edited back to a state from before the c5 install.
