Hope this will help you.
According to Microsoft, IPv6 cannot be uninstalled. However you can disable IPv6. The following steps will help you to disable IPv6 on a specific connection of a network interface card:
1. Go to Network Connections folder (click on Start button, then right click on Network, select Properties, then click on “Manager network connections” on Tasks pane).
2. Right click on the network connection that you want to disable the IPv6 interface and select “Properties”.
Click “Continue” on User Access Control permission request prompt.
3. Clear the check box next to the Internet Protocol version 6 (TCP/IPv6) component in the list under “This connection uses the following items” box.
4. Click OK when done.
5. To re-enable IPv6, tick back the check box.
You can disable IPv6 through Registry Editor also. Add the following registry value (DWORD type) set to 0xFFFFFFFF:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters\DisabledComponents
This method disables IPv6 on all your LAN interfaces, connections, and tunnel interfaces but does not disable the IPv6 loopback interface. You must restart the computer for this registry value to take effect.
