uninstall Oracle 12c from system

I am not expert at oracle database, i was using the oracle server but now I wanted to remove that. So for removing the oracle server I have deleted the installation folder instead of using the oracle de-installer. But I can see some services in my system. Can some one please help me to remove those configurations as well. Please excuse my silly mistake.

Solution

  • That's not really Oracle problem any more, but Windows operating system's.

    As you already are in "Services", double-click its name to see both

    • service name
    • display name

    as sometimes they differ. Then open Windows' command prompt and run 

    sc delete "OracleJobSchedulerORCL"

    where OracleJobSchedulerORCL is the service name. Double quotes aren't needed if there are no spaces in the service name.

    If successful, you'll see the

    [SC] DeleteService SUCCESS

    message.
