5.2 Uninstall

The uninstaller starts only if the application is already installed on the computer. It will remove the application files, registry entries, services and shortcuts. The databases will not be removed.
UAC Enabled
If UAC is enabled on the machine, when starting the EXE, credentials for a privileged user will be required, in order to properly uninstall Administrator (removing deployed files).


In order to uninstall Flowster Studio, follow the next steps:

• Double click on the Flowster Studio Setup.exe file.

• By default, when uninstalling the main FLOWSTER Studio engine, all local machine endpoints are kept in the database. The reason behind it is that in case of having to reinstall (on the same machine), it would be an easier navigation through the UI dialogs, since almost everything will be prefilled with the values used in the previous installation.
• However, starting with FLOWSTER Studio 5.1.1, the installer offers the possibility to remove all references to the current machine when uninstalling it by ticking the Remove local machine related data from the Flowster Studio databases checkbox. This should be done exclusively for cases where the main engine is planned to be moved to another server. Removing the current machine data will result in the user having to reenter all service details (ports, names, etc) when re-installing (be it on the same system or another one).
• To remove Flowster Studio, click Uninstall.
• Please remember that the uninstallation will not remove the Flowster Studio databases.
