Manual uninstall of Appmethod 1.15

Written by Borja on Posted in Installation / Registration

Abstract: How to delete all the files just in case you need to for some unknown reason. Note: This process is recommended for field testers before installing the RTM release.

 Under your Control Panel's Program and Features Add/Remove Program uninstall the following entries:

  • Appmethod 1.15
  • Appmethod 1.15 Help System

 Please follow these instructions to remove any leftover files:

  1. Remove the C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\15.0 directory
  2. Remove the C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\15.0 directory
  3. Remove the C:\Users\esvmw7prox64\Documents\Appmethod_1.15_Downloads directory
  4. Remove the C:\ProgramData\Embarcadero\Studio\15.0 directory
  5. Remove the C:\ProgramData\Embarcadero\BDS\15.0 directory
  6. Remove the following folders with a GUID name in C:\ProgramData\
    1. {0A0496A9-60CC-425A-907C-B223CAA921B7} and/or {74FD2943-877E-4835-837D-216C50ECE815} (help)
    2. {C1FF573A-597E-4E37-9A2A-004D3D201024} and/or {CF504BCC-79FC-4455-BF0B-F2866429F689} (main installer)
  7. Remove the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Embarcadero\BDS\15.0 registry key
  8. Remove the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\15.0 registry key

 Take into account that C:\ProgramData is a hidden folder (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files has instructions to show them).

 On 64-bit machines:

     Program Files = C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\15.0

     Registry keys = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Embarcadero\BDS\15.0
