Removing Installed Products

To free up disk space, you can remove any or all products installed with MIP.

Procedure

  1. Open the Product Removal Selection window in MIP.

    • From the Mentor Install home window, choose Manage Software > Remove Products.

    • From outside of MIP:

      On this platform...

      Do the following:

      Windows 7

      Choose Start > All Programs > Mentor > Mentor Uninstall.

      Windows 8.1 or newer

      From the Start menu, locate Mentor, and choose Mentor Uninstall.
  2. Follow the instructions in the MIP online help. (Click the ? Help button in the upper right corner of the window.)
  3. After you click Done, the following may occur:

    • If one or more release installs remain in the target location, the Release Switcher prompts you to choose an active release.

    • If no Mentor installs remain in the target location, the product removal is finished. However, if a valid install exists in a different target location, the install may now be in an unusable state if the Release Switcher did not run automatically. To fix this, register the release with the Release Switcher.
