C H A P T E R 8 Removing Adaptive Server

Only actions performed by the Installer are removed during an uninstallation process. This means that files or registry entries created after installation are not removed by the uninstaller and must be removed by the customer after the uninstall is completed. Where possible these actions are identified in this chapter.

If Adaptive Server version 15.0.2 is installed on top of an existing Adaptive Server 15.0.1, Adaptive Server version 15.0.1 creates a shortcut that launches the uninstaller, while Adaptive Server 15.0.2 registers the uninstaller with the Change/Drop Programs option on the control panel. Use the Change/Drop Programs option to remove Adaptive Server. This does not remove some of the shortcuts created by the Adaptive Server version 15.0.1 installer; you must manually remove those shortcuts.
