SIEMENS Uninstall... I need some help please.

J.A.du Toit · Oct 5, 2006

Hi Guys,

Do any of you know how to completely remove/uninstall Siemens software, I would like to start from scratch (Had some problems with the previous installation).

Or is there maybe a clean-up application from Siemens?

Thanks for your help, so long...

Regards
Augusto

Oh, maybe I must mention it's the following applications:
1) Simatic Manager Step 7
2) Simatic Net
3) WinCC

Better to reinstall your PC completely, starting from Windows. Siemens software affects Windows too strongly. Simple reinstallation of Siemens software haven't many chances for success.

Ahh no

Please don't tell me that!

Didn't Siemens write a Step by step clean-up procedure?

Hi,

I think it isn't necessary to reinstall the
complete 'Windows' installtion.
Look at this link form 'Siemens' support:

Is It S7 Micro-Win?

I had a bad install of a past version of Micro-Win (s7-200 series) that wouldn't let me remove or reinstall. If this is your problem there is a fix.

I got the following response from support.

I am sending a couple of files they may get you around this , you didn't say what OS , XP, win200 but there is a DCOM setup that will cause it to fail see attached for instructions, also to get out of your situation will need to go into Regedit and delete a folder that contains a piece of the microwin that got installed. See instructions. Do the DCOM check first , also after you complete the regedit routine make sure there is not a listing of this version in the install/uninstall under control panel . After doing all this reboot and try to reinstall.
Another remote possibility is the CD drive , I had to copy the CD to my hard drive and then it installed ok.
Please call if you need additional assistance

I've attached the files referred to.

Edit: Noticed you weren't using Micro-Win, sorry. I'll leave this for anyone that had this problem though.

Nice one DD!

It's a pity this wasn't posted a month ago when my install of Microwin V4.0.3 went pear shaped, the installation didn't like my laptop going into 'stand by' because my battery was low. Out of desperation I reinstalled the lot!
