Can I Delete and Reinstall WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 2, 2022 @ 12:35 am

When you delete WooCommerce, you delete all products, product images, and settings associated with your WooCommerce store. This cannot be undone. If you need to remove WooCommerce for any reason, we recommend deactivating and then uninstalling the plugin.

If you need to completely remove WooCommerce from your WordPress site, you first need to deactivate and uninstall the plugin. You can do this by going to the Plugins page in your WordPress dashboard and selecting Deactivate from the Bulk Actions dropdown menu. Once the plugin is deactivated, select Delete from the Bulk Actions dropdown menu and click Apply.

PRO TIP: If you delete WooCommerce and reinstall it, you will lose all of your data. This includes products, orders, customers, and settings. Make sure you have a backup before proceeding.

Once WooCommerce is completely uninstalled, you can install it again if needed. To do this, go to the Plugins page in your WordPress dashboard and click Add New. Search for WooCommerce in the WordPress plugin directory and click Install Now.

Can I Delete and Reinstall WooCommerce?

Yes, you can delete and reinstall WooCommerce if needed. However, keep in mind that this will delete all products, product images, and settings associated with your WooCommerce store.
