Uninstalling Caddy from Windows 10 system

0. My goal:

I would like to uninstall Caddy from my computer.  

1. Output of caddy version:

v2.6.2 h1:wKoFIxpmOJLGl3QXoo6PNbYvGW4xLEgo32GPBEjWL8o=

2. How I run Caddy:

a. System environment:

Windows 10, caddy files were copy pasted to "C:/Program Files".

b. Command:

caddy "help" "start", "run", "reload", "stop", "validate", and "version".

d. My complete Caddy config:

mozi."domain".com {
        reverse_proxy 192.168.0.3:8096
        tls {
                dns cloudflare "API_KEY"
        }
}

3. The problem I’m having:

I can't because my task manager shows me running the "caddy.exe" process, and I can't kill it.

4. What I already tried:

I have tried killing the process in the taskbar and deleting it manually through the file manager.

There’s no installer. Just delete caddy.exe.

How did you “install” Caddy? Did you set it up to run as a service? If so, you need to kill/remove the service.

If Caddy is still running and you’re not able to kill it, just reboot your machine, I guess.

Thank you. I have forgotten about it. Just kill the service with the basic windows services manager or NSSM.
