Uninstalling Unica Centralized Offer Management

Run the Unica Centralized Offer Management uninstaller to uninstall Unica Centralized Offer Management. When you run the uninstaller, the files that were created during the installation process are removed. For example, files such as configuration files, installer registry information, and user data are removed from the computer.

About this task

When you install Unica products, an uninstaller is included in the Uninstall_Product directory, where Product is the name of your product. On Windows™, an entry is also added to the Add or Remove Programs list in the Control Panel.

If you manually remove the files in your installation directory instead of running the uninstaller, the result might be an incomplete installation if you later reinstall a product in the same location. After uninstalling a product, its database is not removed. The uninstaller only removes default files that are created during installation. Any file that is created or generated after installation is not removed.

Note:
  • On UNIX™, the same user account that installed Unica Centralized Offer Management must run the uninstaller.

    • Select Settings > Configuration.
    • Select Unica Platform.
    • Select Edit settings.
