Removing or Reinstalling the Product Software

You should remove the existing software packages if you are reinstalling version 4.1 of the Java Dynamic Management Kit. If you installed the packages with the installation wizard, there is a Java class file which you can launch to lead you through the uninstallation procedure. Make sure that your classpath is set up properly for your version of the java command.

Because the packages of the Java Dynamic Management Kit are not listed in the Windows NT registry, you must go through the uninstaller to remove the software. If you installed the software from the ZIP file, you will need to delete the files of the installation by hand.

Running the Uninstallation Wizard

1. Open a command prompt window and go to the location of the installed software and launch the uninstallation wizard class:

   C:\>cd "installDir\SUNWjdmk\jdmk4.1\JDKversion" C:\>java uninstall_jdmk41_nt_JDKversion

   You may need to add the current directory (.) to your classpath to run the wizard class.

2. Choose the type of uninstallation you wish to perform and follow the instructions.

   A Full uninstall will remove all of the Java Dynamic Management Kit packages that were installed.

   A Partial uninstall will let you choose the packages you wish to remove. You may launch this wizard again to remove the other packages at a later date.

3. Click the "Details" button on the last screen of the wizard to make sure the uninstallation is complete. When you are done, exit the wizard.

   Note -

   The uninstallation wizard can only remove packages added during the previous installation. If packages remain after running the uninstallation wizard, you will need to delete their files by hand.
