Clean uninstall MicroStrategy Analytics Enterprise using the Uninstallation Cleanup Utility

How to  clean uninstall MicroStrategy Analytics Enterprise using the Uninstallation Cleanup Utility CONSIDERATIONS/GUIDELINES : This Uninstallation Cleanup Utility is designed to remove the obsolete or leftover services, files and registries after uninstalling MicroStrategy products.  The goal of this cleanup utility is to remove the leftover files and registries after uninstallation to make the machine "cleaner" for a second time installation (it can solve some known downgrade installation issues).  The basic assumption for removing files is that the user installed MicroStrategy  in a path that contains the string "MicroStrategy" . If not, the files and certain registry keys will not be removed. Using the cleanup utility incorrectly can cause system-wide problems that may require re-installation of the Operating System.  This utility should always be tested in a test environment before being run in a production environment.   Link to download
