For a "basic uninstall" just MySQL no GUI/ODBC etc, Click START button, click RUN type APPWIZ.CPL and hit OK. Find MySQL Server 5.X and remove it. |

Not sure what version of Windows you are running. If its the XP style, then go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove programs. If it's the new style (Vista/Win7), then it would be something like Control Panel -> All Control Panel Items -> Programs and Features portion and just run the uninstall of MySQL. |
