Need to know how to uninstall

I think I did something wrong when I install zen-cart,
I have to go to my wenandash.com/catlog to see my cart, this is not what I want,
I want when customers just type my domain name and will see my webpage,
since I dont know where went wrong, so the best way for me is to uninstall zen-cart then reinstall it.

does any one know how to uninstall it?
Thanks
Wen

It is simply a matter of deleting your catalog folder as in wenandash.com/catalog

To delete your database you will need to log into your cPanel or equivalent in your Windows server (I have no experience with that sort of server....) and delete your database from there.

Then you upload a new 1.5.1 fileset to wenandash.com (root) and perform a new installation as per instructions.

There are shortcuts for the more experienced zenner, but ....... better start from scratch.

Thank you so much for the information, now I think about, may be I created "catlog" for testing it out before I set my webpage live @@

Make sure you are using 2 databases one for each. Don't use the same database for both.
