How to completely uninstall MindManager for Windows

Anatolie P. shared this question ago

Hi,

There is an article in Knowledge Base with the same subject https://kb.mindmanager.com/en/125389

but at step 2 the link for clean script is broken.

>Download and execute the attached registry clean script (Unzip the file, double-click it and confirm dialogues)

I am in the process of buying new version and I want to be sure that all the old registry settings and folders are deleted before I will install the new one.

I found some folders from trials in C;/Users/UserName/AppData/Local/Mindjet/MindManager

with version numbers.

I need:

1. To be able to download clean script or instructions how to clean my registry from old versions

2. Clean my C-drive or may be another drives from old folders and files.

Thanks,

Hello Anatoulie,

To completely uninstall MindManager, do the following -

Uninstall MindManager through the Windows Control Panel
Delete your app data at C:/Users/UserName/AppData/Local/Mindjet/MindManager
Delete the Current User registry entries under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Mindjet\MindManager
Delete the Local Machine registry entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mindjet\MindManager

If you want any of your settings in your current version of MindManager to carry over to the new version, first install the new version before perming the steps I outlined.

Best regards,

-Marian

Hi,

I also found a lot of settings in Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\

For instance this setting

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0039733E-1312-4535-B292-68A5137FE367}\InprocServer32

I spent few hours to delete all mentions of "Mindjet" or "Mindmanager" from the registry and I install new version only after it.

I wonder why uninstall program didn't delete above mentioned files and folders. It is design to clean the system from all related objects in the system.

Thanks
