  You can remove `civicrm.settings.php` and run the installer again. Here's where to find it:
  
  * Backdrop:
  * Drupal: `/sites/default`
  * Joomla: `/components/com_civicrm`
  * WordPress: `/wp_content/plugins/civicrm`
  
  Note that this will NOT remove the old tables from your existing database. To do that, [see here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1589278/sql-deleting-tables-with-prefix).
