Before removing Sitecore, delete the IIS web site or update it to reference a different root directory as appropriate, or stop IIS:

net stop w3svc

  net stop "sql server (sqlexpress)"
  For all other Editions of SQL Server:
  net stop "sql server (mssqlserver)"
   
• If Sitecore was installed using the setup executable, it can be removed using Add or Remove Programs from the Windows Control Panel. Locate the appropriate entry and choose Remove:
  
• The system will prompt for confirmation:
  
• Restart SQL and IIS services as appropriate
   
• Remove any databases on remote servers used by this Sitecore instance
