Autodesk Installer checks the GUID of the product under below register key to judge if this product is installed or not.  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products

but it's not a official supported way to delete the registry keys manually to cheat installer. we recommend you to uninstall product through the product entry in control panel.

if you are working with 2022 Autodesk products, most of them has uninstall helper in C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Uninstallers. you can also delete specific products through it's uninstall helper.

uninstall product through the product entry in control panel is not possible any more because when I try to do it ... it fail late in the process so control panel belive  it is already uninstall, but installer believe it still there

The Vault installation consists of several msi packages. What you can try is to manually uninstall all msi packages through their product code.

 

That I can give you all the product codes I need to know which Autodesk Vault version you have ?

For example "Autodesk Vault Professional 2019 German" ?
