Hi Sunny,
I think we need to know how you installed Kibana as a service. Kibana doesn't have any setup to install a service. Maybe you used NSSM like I do?

To check, if you go to Administrative Tools, Services, and find your kibana service, mine shows;

Path to executable:
C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\NSSM\tools\nssm.exe

And if that's the case, I think you can uninstall the service with something like;

nssm remove kibana

Let us know if that helps or you installed it as a service some other way.

Regards,
Lee

Hello Lee,

Thanks for your feedback. Yes i had installed via NSSM and tried the way you mentioned but for some reason it did not delete the service. Later i had to delete it via regit which removed it completely. Will proceed with installation for 6.7.
