Unable to uninstall Autodesk Application Manager

Anonymous — Tue, 28 Oct 2014 19:29:03 GMT

Hello,
On 9/30/2014 I downloaded the AutoCAD Trial version AutoCAD_2015_English_Win_32_64bit_Trial_wi_en-us_Setup and because my old computer was running very slow afterwards, I have uninstalled it. As you know, during the installation process the Autodesk Application Manager comes along, uninvited, and now I cannot uninstall it at all. I have uninstalled everything else, or so I believe, however, when I try to uninstall the Autodesk Application Manager the mesage"Autodesk application Manager is still running on this computer. All instances must be quit prior to uninstall"
Nothing is running... I don't know what else to do to uninstall this final element... :(.

Do you have any other ideas that myght help me,Please?

Have you tried actually closing the Autodesk Application Manager from the systray before trying to uninstall it? You might also be able to kill it from the Task Manager processes. Worth a try.

THANK YOU THANK YOU I can't tell you how many hours we've wasted on this. Go to Task Manager/Details, then we selected AppMgr.exe and "End task" worked!

If this didn't work, sorry, I don't know what else to try, sorry....

Go to Task Manager/Details, then click on AppMgr.exe and click "End task".

You can find the Task Manager by clicking on the window in the bottom left corner of your screen, then typing in Task Manager. When I did this, AppMgr.exe was one of the choices. I wish I could help. I was trying to install Autocad 2015, I think, but this was almost 2 years ago. The software may have changed since then.
