    1. Try deleting via fantastico. Log into your cpanel the click on the "fantastico" button. Click on "WordPress" and then you should see it listed as installed on your domain name and delete link there.

    2. If that doesn't work - Go to "file manager" and delete all of the wordpress files. Then go to "Databases" and delete the database.

    If you don't know much about file manager (which you do not or else you wouldn't asked this question ) , then I recommend you not deleting the files yourself, but rather ask some friend of yours or even your hosting company to help you do it. You might end up deleting the wrong files, if there are other important files or other domains hosted there.
