I have a domain from godaddy and wanted to make a subdomain with a forum on it. I did so, but want to put a different forum software on it. How do I uninstall the software from a domain?? Sorry for being stupid, but I looked all the way through the C-Panel and can't find a software-uninstall button.

"Installing" PHP software just means putting files on the server. All you need to do is delete those files (and databases, if necessary).

I know that much, but how do I delete them? I can't find a place on the C-Panel fro deleting the software files from a domain.

Here is what you need to do

1. Log on to your account
2 . Look for the Databases area in the panel .
3. Click on My sql databases

Once there pick the database you would like to remove . If you still have any problems feel free to send me a Private message

Have you tried the file manager?

If you used "softaculous" to install then you can use it to uninstall.
Domain just points the traffic to where your server is.
So your forum is hosted at the server and godaddy which you paid for your domain, points them here (if that's in your dns).

So if you are in CPanel, like essellar said, use file manager and find the folder and click 'delete'

DO NOT DELETE the folder [ public_html ] - you can delete files and folders inside of that folder

you can use a FTP client like FileZilla to work on files and folders in your account
