Autocad 2012 already installed error

[ademir.salihovic]

Greetings guys,

yesterday I installed both AutoCad 2012 and AutoCad 2012 Architecture on my windows 7 32 bit OS.

Now the thing is I wanted both to be uninstalled because I messed up something. So what I did is I didnt, take the usual delete program route, i just  manually went and cleaned the program files folder and in the >Control Panel>Uninstall a program .

So this resulted in the problem im having at the moment. Once I want to install both programs, it tells me that they are already installed.

This tells me theres still files roaming on my computer!

Could anyone give me a detailed list to go in and which files I have to delete so I can perform a clean install on both Acad 2012 and Acad 2012 Architecture.

Thanks in advance

Alrighty,

I would love to thank you guys for replying! But none of the suggestions mentioned helped me to be honest.
What I did, was a clean and fresh system restore to a date before I installed the AutoCad applications.

This worked like a charm and I would suggest this to everyone encountering the same problem like mine.

SOLVED !
