Scenario#15 – RTMT won’t un-install/install – Same version already installed

I have a virtual machine where I have several RTMT versions installed. I use it whatever suits customer version.

Today came across an interesting situatuation when my Unity RTMT didn’t work.  I decided to download the plugin and install it fresh.  All went fine until I ran the installation. I was getting this error:

RTMT version already installed and you cannot have same version blah blah..

I went into the Add/remove program and uninstalled the RTMT. All good.

I then went to Programs > Cisco > CallManager Serviceability > Unsinstall RTMT 8.1

Got an error > Cannot locate the uninstall file.

I was kind of stuck,  I had to run the RTMT and my RTMT was not working. I statred looking for it on the internet but no joy.

After spending some time on the Internet I found the solution posted by a TAC.  This fixed the issue.

I thought it’s worth Sharing.

Go to C:/Program Files/ Zero G Registry open the file “.com.zerog.registry.xml” in a text editor. It’s a hidden folder so make sure you view hidden files/folders as well.

Open the file ‘.com.zerog.registry.xml’  in a wordpad and remove the entries correspondonding to RTMT 8.1. Make sure you remove within the XML tags.

I had this output from that file:
