Cant Uninstall UE-V 2.1 if Settings Storage Path not set

I'm currently testing UE-V and am configuring it so that Settings Storage gets stored in users home directory, rather than dumped in a single share. I have to add "SettingsStoragePathReg=TRUE " into the installation
command in order for the install to work, as UE-V 2.1 requires a SettingsStoragePath to be set. This works just fine and UE-V installs and functions as expected.
The problem comes when I try and uninstall it - I get an error message saying "The SettingStoragePath must be specified" This has to be a bug? - considering I'm trying to remove it. I can set the reg key manually and then uninstall it, but that
is not practical for when the time comes I want to update (and have to remove) the software on client machines.
Has anyone else come across this and if so, what did you do in order to uninstall it without having to manually add a reg key?
Thanks
Stef

I ended up logging a call with MS and was told in no uncertain terms that it was a bug and would get fixed in the next release. For the time being the property that you set during install "SettingsStoragePathReg=TRUE" also need to be specified
when its uninstalled as-well - then it will remove. It doesn't matter if its set to TRUE or FALSE, it just needs to be set. 
So, to uninstall i needed to specify this command: msiexec.exe /x AgentSetupx64.msi acceptlicenseterms=true SettingsStoragePathReg=TRUE /quiet /norestart
It cant be uninstalled from control panel, unless you manually add in the SettingsStoragePath Key. I have also been told that in the next version they are going to remove the need to define the licence terms and storagepathreg properties in
the uninstall command.

  • Estimating size of Settings Storage Path

    Hi,
    Can anyone advise what kind of size i should allow for the SettingsPackages folder? (Settings Storage Path location)  I'm going to allow UE-V create this on the User's Home folder but as we enforce quota's I'm curious to know what we should allow for
    this to cater for now and in the future?
    Thanks
    Jim

    That's a good question.  I just ran some PowerShell to get the average size of our users SettingsStoragePath and see that our average size is 34MB.  Take that as you will.  And that is with orphaned files.  See below.
    We have 64 templates loaded for our users, most of these are the out of the box Microsoft templates. 
    Take a look at this thread for something to look out for.  Ue-V will orphan some files that can be periodically cleaned up.

  • I cant recover my computer to normal factory settings because of not genuine windows 7

    2. not genuine windows 7... before that windows vista
    4. i downloaded windows 7.
    5. i cant restore back to windows vista, my recovery disk is empty but it says its full. it laggs to much and i think it fryed my video card

    Here are the specs for your Compaq Presario CQ60-211DX Notebook Computer. According to the specs your system shipped with Windows Vista Home Basic SP1. HP states in its Upgrading to Windows 7 FAQs, that you should create a set of HP system recovery discs before upgrading the OS. If a problem occurs during the upgrade process, you can use the recovery discs to return your computer back to its original software configuration. Your recovery disk (partition) is most likely near full but the folders and files are hidden. It is likely that the link to the recovery partition was removed from your system during the upgrade to Windows 7. This HP Recovery Manager Installer Patch may help, if you did an upgrade and not a custom or clean install.
    Did you create a set of HP Recovery Discs??? If not, you will need to order a set from HP.
    Did you purchase a Genuine Windows 7 installation disc with COA and product key??? If not, you will need to purchase a Genuine copy of Windows 7 from Microsoft or a retailer.

  • I need to uninstall my old version on itunes and install a new version, i cant uninstall from Programs and Features, a message keeps coming up saying 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.' Can anyone help please

    I have tried to just install the new version of itunes from the apple website, it looks like it downloads but after 5 minutes at the end of the install it says 'old version of itunes cannot be uninstalled, please contact support.'?  
    Is there anyway I can remove the version of itunes from my computer? i dont mind if i lose the music/content I already have on my itunes. I need to do this as i have just received the iphone 4 and need to install the newest version of itunes.
    Many thanks

    I need to uninstall my old version on itunes and install a new version, i cant uninstall from Programs and Features, a message keeps coming up saying 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.'
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • Cant uninstall itunes because 'itunes.msi' cant be found

    hi,
    while trying to update itunes to 9.2 version the update failed due to the bonjour file,i restarted the pc tried to open the itunes programme from the desktop short cut and got message 'this action is only valid for products that are currently installed'. now i can only open itunes by going through the my music-itunes-itunes media etc route when everything in itunes works fine.
    After updating the software on my ipod touch to the 4.0 update, i am then informed that the ipod will only work with itunes 9.2. I try to install the itunes update and get the same mesage as before...'cant uninstall previous version of itunes'
    i try to uninstall itunes..quicktime..apple software update etc as stated on apple support site and all i get is 'the feature you are trying to use is on a network resourse that is unavailable' and when i try i cant find the installation package 'itunes.msi'
    Can somebody help my please??

    Glad you got things working again.
    Were you able to track down a working download site for version 3.0, or did you have to try a 2.5? (Download sites for 3.0 seem to be as rare as hen's teeth, now.)

  • Cant uninstall or install firefox

    I got a virus in firefox browser, i cleaned it with spybot search and destroy, now i cant do anything with firefox, i cant uninstall it to reinstall it, it wont let me do anything, what can i do?

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • I cant uninstall my itunes off my computer, i have followed instructions and i still have errors, including error 2330 and redundance cyclic. the only software i have left is itunes.exe and file es.lproj which is located in the ituneshelpresources folder

    I cant uninstall my itunes off my computer, i have followed instructions and i still have errors, including error 2330 and redundance cyclic. the only software i have left is itunes.exe and file es.lproj which is located in the ituneshelpresources folder. i recently installed a second hard drive and that let me uninstall everything. I just want to get itunes off my computer and reinstall itunes, i have deleted everything i can and i ran "chkdsk" this did nothing. I would have just updated the oild itunes to the newest version but it didnt ley me do that. installing/ uninstalling or deleting just lets me get half way and shows me these errors. Please help, thank you.
    JPHowarth

    the only software i have left is itunes.exe and file es.lproj which is located in the ituneshelpresources folder.
    If the chkdsk isn't fixing the damage, and those are the only iTunes that can't be deleted, try renaming the "iTunes" folder that they are contained in (in your Program files) to iTunesOLD.
    Now try another install. Does it go through without the 2330 this time?

    I cant uninstall searchqu/com, which has taken over my firefox as an unwanted home page

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • I need to install dreamweaver on a new laptop but i cant uninstall from the old one how do i do it

    my daughter destroyed the hard drive on my laptop so I cant uninstall so how do I replace it on a new laptop. I already have it running on my desktop pc.

    How you do it depends on which version you are asking about.  If it is a licensed version then you need to contact Adobe support using chat and ask them to reset your activations.  If it is a Cloud subscription then you should be able to install on the new machine and when you sign in it should automatically sign out of other installations.
