Re: How do i uninstall Splunk Enterprise on Window...

Hello,

I would like to uninstall Splunk on my windows machine, do i need to stop the service first and then uninstall the program from control panel or directly uninstall it?

Can some one please help me with it?

Thanks

I believe the uninstaller will stop the service, but it's a good idea to stop it yourself first.
