Run the Contact Optimization and Attribution Modeler
uninstallers to uninstall Contact Optimization. When you run the Contact Optimization 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 HCL® Marketing
Software products, an
uninstaller is included in the Uninstall_Product directory,
where Product is the name of your HCL
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 an HCL
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.
In addition to the general instructions for uninstalling HCL Marketing
Software products, follow the guidelines when you
uninstall Contact Optimization:
- If you have multiple Contact Optimization runtime
installations using the same Marketing Platform
installation, you must remove network connectivity for the Contact Optimization runtime workstation before you run the
uninstaller. Failure to do so uninstalls the configuration data for all the other Contact Optimization runtime installations from Marketing Platform.
- You can safely ignore any warnings about failure to unregister with Marketing Platform.
- You can export a copy of your configuration as a precaution before uninstalling Contact Optimization.
- If you uninstall the Contact Optimization design time
environment, after you run the uninstaller, you may need to manually unregister Contact Optimization. Use the configtool utility
to unregister
full_path_to_Interact_DT_installation_directory\interactDT\conf\interact_navigation.xml.
Note: On UNIX™, the same user account that installed Contact Optimization must
run the uninstaller.
