How to uninstall Cloudflare WARP on Windows

Turn the WARP connection off before you remove the app. Cloudflare WARP, now called Cloudflare One Client in its window and Start Menu, keeps no documents of yours on disk, but if your organization enrolled this PC in Cloudflare Zero Trust, uninstalling does not remove the device from that organization. This guide covers Cloudflare WARP installed machine-wide from the Cloudflare.Warp winget package, a Windows Installer package that also sets up a background service. Cloudflare: Uninstall the client

Disconnect and quit

Click the WARP icon in the notification area, turn the connection off, then quit the client. The tunnel itself runs in the warp-svc service, which the uninstaller stops; in Mole's Startup list it shows as a Cloudflare One Client service next to the client's sign-in entry. Check Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) for Cloudflare One Client or warp-svc before you uninstall.

Remove the app with its own uninstaller

Go to Settings › Apps › Installed apps, find Cloudflare One Client, and choose Uninstall, or run:

winget uninstall --id Cloudflare.Warp

It is a machine-wide Windows Installer package, so Windows asks for administrator access. The uninstaller removes the program, the service and its startup entry.

Where the data lives

Location	What it holds	What to do
`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Cloudflare`	`WARP-GUI.log` and `ipc.log`, the client's logs	Safe to remove
`HKCU\Software\com.cloudflare\Cloudflare One Client`	Client settings, with a `WinSparkle` key for its update checks	Safe to remove if you are not reinstalling
`HKCU\Software\Classes\AppUserModelId\Cloudflare.CloudflareOne.WARP`	How Windows shows the client's notifications	Small; remove it together with the settings key if you want

Check the result

Run these read-only commands after the uninstall finishes:

Get-Process "Cloudflare One Client", warp-svc -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Get-Service -DisplayName "Cloudflare*" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
winget list --id Cloudflare.Warp
Test-Path "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Cloudflare"
Test-Path "HKCU:\Software\com.cloudflare"

No output from Get-Process only means this query observed no matching process; a suppressed error leaves the running state unknown.
If Get-Service succeeds without suppressed errors, no output means the service is gone; a listed service means the uninstall did not finish.
A completed winget list query with no match means the package record is gone.
The first Test-Path returning True means the log folder is still there; False means it is gone.
The second Test-Path returning True means the client's settings key is still there; False means it is gone.

If you installed it with winget

winget uninstall runs the same Windows Installer removal Settings › Apps uses and removes the same program files and service; it does not touch %LOCALAPPDATA%\Cloudflare or the keys under HKCU\Software\com.cloudflare.

Account and organization

Uninstalling does not end a WARP+ subscription and does not revoke this device from a Cloudflare Zero Trust organization. An administrator of that organization removes the device from its list.

What Mole lists

For Cloudflare WARP installed machine-wide from winget:

The Start Menu shortcut in the Cloudflare WARP folder is selected by default; in this test the uninstaller had already deleted it.
The two log files in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Cloudflare and the keys under HKCU\Software\com.cloudflare are not listed. Check them after the uninstall and remove them yourself if you want a clean start.

What this test covered

Tested on September 28, 2026 with Cloudflare One Client 26.7.1376.0 installed through winget, machine scope, and removed with its Windows Installer uninstaller. No Zero Trust enrollment or account was set up, and the connection was not used.
