1- Remove the current appian folder e.g. c:\appian181 completely ------------ YES 
2- Un-Install JBOSS and install it again? ------------------- Nothing to uninstall, it is present in the above mentioned folder. (c:\appian181\appian\bin). It will be removed along with that folder. 
 
Kindly mention if any other folder/file/settings removal/update is required --------------- Nothing is required, all settings and files are present in that folder (c:\appian181). 
 
That's all :) 
 
Hope this helps.

Using the Installation Guide as Reference, do the following: 1.Part Five: Allow Insecure Cookies Open \ear\suite.ear\web.war\WEB-INF\web.xml in a text editor. Remove the following lines:

true

true COOKIE Save the file. 2.Part Ten: Deploy the Configurations Use the configure script to validate your environment's configuration and deploy Appian. Open the command prompt, and then run the following command: \_admin\_scripts\configure\configure.bat Choose 4 - Validate configurations. Choose 5 - Deploy configurations, select 1 - , and then select 3 - Deploy configurations to both. If prompted, select the option that corresponds with your version of JBoss. Type Q to quit. 3.If Appian fails to start properly for any reason, check the following: Verify that the following file exists and does not have the extensions .undeployed, .isdeploying or .failed: \_admin\_scripts\configure emplates\ear\suite.ear.dodeploy Delete the following file if it has the extensions .undeployed, .isdeploying or .failed: \standalone\deployments\appian-mysql-ds.xml.deployed Hope this helps

Why don't you reinstall the latest hotfix, once again? 
 
FYI 
 docs.appian.com/.../Hotfixes.html

And do let me know, the status. 
 
Your logs state that the files have been missing. 
 
Just reinstall the hotfixes once again and re-deploy the configuration.

1. I will remove everything (Fresh Installation right? ) 2. Then i will install 18.1 3. I will install hotfix-b pkg 
 docs.appian.com/.../Hotfixes.html 
 Follow these steps again docs.appian.com/.../Quick_Start_Installation_Guide_for_Windows_and_JBoss.html All the best :)
