Hey there everyone,<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve recently had a few people contacting support wanting to know how to uninstall BackupAssist from a Server Core or Hyper-V machine for troubleshooting purposes. To help others who might have the same query, I\u2019ve outlined the process for removing BackupAssist from Server Core or Hyper-V Server below.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open a command prompt window.<\/li>\n
  2. First, you need to obtain some information from the Windows registry, so enter regedit<\/strong> in the command prompt window and hit Enter<\/strong> on your keyboard.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  3. The Windows Registry Editor will then load. Expand the registry tree on the left to locate the following entry:
    \nHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall\\<\/span>
    \nThere should be a list of ID\/keys under this entry.<\/li>\n
  4. Click on each key and look for a \u2018Display Name\u2019 in the right hand window that reads \u2018BackupAssist VX\u2019 (where X is the version number you\u2019re running). Once you\u2019ve found the key associated with BackupAssist, write it down or copy it. The key we require in the example below is {622B13D7-F0C1-4F87-B507-E9B5F2779741}.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  5. Return to the command prompt window and enter msiexec \/i <key><\/strong>
    \nWhere <key><\/strong> is the key you copied from the registry during the previous step. In the example used above, the command would be as follows:
    \nmsiexec.exe \/i {622B13D7-F0C1-4F87-B507-E9B5F2779741}
    \n\"Msiexec
    \n<\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. You should now see the regular InstallShield interface. Click Next<\/strong> on the first screen and then select Remove<\/strong> to initiate the uninstall process.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  7. Once the uninstall process completes, BackupAssist will have been completely removed from your system.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I hope this information helps. If you have any questions or run into any difficulties, please send us an email at support@backupassist.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Thanks,<\/p>\n
