Accidentally deleted SQlite3 ODBC and can´t access or download Inventor Professional now

[kristinn_orms]

Hi!

I have a student licence for Autodesk Inventor 2019. I was making room on my computer (uninstalling unused software) when I accidentally accepted the computer's recommendation of deleting SQlite3 ODBC. When I then realized that this software helps with navigation or path finding in the computer I stopped the uninstall but now I can't access Inventor.

I have tried to re-install but the installer says that it is already installed on the computer and I can't uninstall it to re-either (the uninstaller can't find the path). Can anybody help me here?

Hi @kristinn_orms 

Can you try reinstalling it this way?

Hi Michael and thanks for your reply!

No this doesn't work. Interestingly now Inventor doesn't even appear on my "Programs and Features" list but when I open the installer file ("Inventor_Pro_2019_English_Win_64bit_wi_en-us_Setup_webinstall.exe") it tells me that Inventor is already installed on the computer (see figure below). I don't seem to be able to access this "Repair or Reinstall" feature. I really don't understand this 😕😕

Can you share a screenshot of the program features / maybe a screencast video would be easier

[kristinn_orms]

Here you can see a screencast when I open "Programs and Features". As you can see, Inventor and almost all other Autodesk products have disappeared from the list

What happens if you type Autodesk in the upper search line?

Let's see if we can uninstall it this way:

Do you see it listed in the Microsoft Fix It tool?

Also, have you rebooted the PC?

Thank you for your help. The Microsoft Fix It Tool did the trick. Through it, I could uninstall Inventor Professional 2019 and then I reinstalled it again and now it works 🙂 

Thanks again. Really appreciate it!
