How Will I get rid of spam comments after installing it?
Mostly my site get guest comments and I don't force them to signups or register to comment

@mukesh, Hello and welcome! To address your questions about switching from the standard WordPress commenting system to wpDiscuz:

Installing wpDiscuz will not remove your old comments. It works with the existing WordPress comments database, so all your previous comments will remain intact and visible.
wpDiscuz helps reduce spam comments by offering advanced anti-spam features such as integration with popular anti-spam services, customizable comment moderation, and options to limit or filter guest comments without forcing registration.
You can keep allowing guest comments without requiring signups, and still benefit from spam protection features like CAPTCHA, comment approval, and spam filters that wpDiscuz provides.
