 | Manually uninstalling an ISAPI on IIS with Windows 2003 .NET Server |
| | | | | | | To remove an ISAPI plugin that has already been installed on a Windows 2003 .NET Server running Microsoft Internet Information Services, begin by opening up Internet Information Services. |
| Open up the Internet Information Services Manager by clicking on the Start button, located on the toolbar, and then selecting Control Panel from the Settings menu. |  |
| In the Control Panel folder, double-click on the icon Administrative Tools. (Note: If this icon does not appear, it could be because you do not have administrative privileges.) |  |
| Once the Administrative Tools folder is open, double-click on the icon Internet Services Manager. This will open up Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager's main configuration screen. |  |
| Double-click on the server where the ISAPI is installed. In the example above, "TEST03 (local computer)" is the name of the server. A list of Web Sites should be expanded. Right-click on the web site that the ISAPI plugin is installed on and then select Properties. |  |
| The Web Site Properties dialog should be displayed. |  |
| Click on the ISAPI Filters tab to configure the ISAPI plugin. |  |
| To remove an ISAPI plugin from the list of plugin filters that IIS uses click on the ISAPI plugin and click the "Remove" button. |  |
| In order for the changes to take effect on the server, IIS needs to be restarted. To restart the server, right-click on the server and from the menu select All Tasks -> Restart IIS. |  |
| Select Restart Internet Services and click "Ok". This will restart Microsoft Internet Information Services. Once the server is restarted, the ISAPI plugin will not be running or active on the server anymore. |  |
