  • 1.  Uninstalling Sage workstation when server no longer exists

    Posted 11-02-2022 16:05
    Is there any way to do this?  Client has several old workstations still listed and the servers associated are long ago consigned to the server graveyard.

    I've used REVO - a free uninstaller program.

    Be wary of doing this on an active workstation.  Uninstall of an old version breaks the new workstation too (shared components).  You'll likely need to re-install / repair the new version afterwards.
    If you just want to remove the prompt for what server to connect with when starting Sage 100, that might be possible by editing SOTA.INI (or something similar) on the workstation.

    I think he said it actually has that annoying pop up that is trying to install something
