Uninstall the Windows Client or its components

You can uninstall the Windows Client by either using the Windows Control Panel or performing silent uninstallation.

Use Control Panel to uninstall the Windows Client

Follow these steps:

  1. From the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel > Add/ Remove Programs. The Add/Remove Programs window opens.
  2. Scroll to Micro FocusService Manager Client and click Remove. A message prompts you to verify that you want to remove the program.
  3. Click Yes. The uninstall process takes several minutes. Additional messages indicate the progress of the uninstall. When you complete the uninstall, click Close to close the Add/Remove Programs dialog box.

Perform silent uninstallation

Follow these steps:

  1. Open a Windows command prompt and then navigate to the Installation\_uninstall directory.
  2. Run the following command to perform silent uninstallation:

    uninstaller.exe -i silent

    Note To keep the console waiting till the silent uninstallation is completed, you can save the above command in a batch file such as uninstall.bat, and then run the call uninstall.bat command.

The client uninstall process intentionally preserves your client configuration settings and any other files that have changed since the initial installation. You must manually remove these files if you want to completely uninstall Service Manager from your system. We recommend that you delete the entire client installation folder and the local writeable workspace and configuration folder if you do not want to preserve any existing client settings.
