Re: problem uninstall

I can think of a few things to try:
- Repair the install, then try uninstalling.
- Run the original installation package. It should detect the product is already installed and offer to uninstall it.
- Use msizap to remove it. I believe msizap is included in the windows sdk.

Re: problem uninstall

Hello,

In addition to "codesynergy" guidelines you can also try to use the Microsoft "Fix it" program to remove the broken installation.

Also, to try investigate the root cause of the failure please generate a verbose log of the uninstall and send it us alongside the .aip (project file) of the setup to support at advancedinstaller dot com.

All the best,
Daniel
