[Feature Request] Add a removal tool incase the tunnel is incorrectly installed

Open r1sk01 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Simply add a removal tool in the UI, even if the tunnel isn't detected as being installed that forces removes the entire service as my tunnel seems to be incorrectly installed and won't let me uninstall and reinstall it, causing the server to try and try to install it, but failing.
It was constantly spawning the same process according to Procmon and accessing the same keys, which caused it to do absolutely nothing.

Hey @LunarN0v4, sorry about this issue. As a workaround, can you try

wireguard /uninstalltunnelservice wg_server

from an admin prompt?

I actually did try that, but it still loops on the installer.
I managed to fix it by restarting my computer, but I'm unsure of how it happened in the first place.
The feature request should still be added in case someone else gets in the same loop as me though.

By any chance did you try completely uninstalling WireGuard from WS4W? I'm just trying to think of what the tool can do to help the user force remove. If it doesn't even work manually, then the tool won't be much better. 😊

I didn't try that since I have WireGuard tunnels installed on my system that I use.
