I need to uninstall a Windows installation of Schrödinger software, but I don't have the installer any more. How do I do this?
Use Start → All Programs → Schrodinger-year → Uninstall to uninstall the software. An uninstaller is included in the software installation, so you can uninstall it even if you don't have the original installer.
If this command does not exist or does not work, it is probable that you have already removed the Schrodingeryear folder that contains your software installation. If you do not want to reinstall this release, you do not need to take any further action. Otherwise, see Article 1757 for instructions on cleaning up before reinstalling.
For a clean uninstallation you should always use the installer or the Uninstall command.
If you want to uninstall an older release than Suite 2010, you can use the Suite 2010 installer to remove Suite 2009. Otherwise, download the uninstaller for Suite 2007 or Suite 2008 from the appropriate location:
ftp://ftp.schrodinger.com/support/hidden/uninstall/Schrodinger_2007_Uninstall.zip
ftp://ftp.schrodinger.com/support/hidden/uninstall/Schrodinger_2008_Uninstall.zip
If you still have problems, contact technical support for help.
