For some reason I no longer have Quest Installer listed under All Programs -> Quest Software
I did find the QI.EXE in the folder c:\Program File (x86)\Quest Software\Quest Installer
but it does nothing when I double-click on it.
I installed 12.5 GA and wanted to uninstall the 12.5 beta. Any ideas how to go about doing this?
product version on QI.EXE is 6.0.5.5880 with a Date modified 5/27/2014
I could not find any way to reinstall Quest Installer
I think the only way to uninstall products installed by QI now is through windows add/remove programs. You should see Quest Installer listed as well.

You would not use QI to uninstall a beta, at least I don’t think it has this capability. Use Add/Remove programs or run the original/base msi.

I actually had looked for it under Control Panel -> programs and features
but didn’t see it listed. But I see it listed now and did the uninstall from there.
Thanks.
Interesting that trying to do the same (Uninstall/Change) for Quest Installer brings up a window stating:
The Dell Software Installer has detected that the following Dell product(s) managed by the Dell Software Installer are still installed on your machine:
<list including several Toad for Oracle 64-bit entries>
To proceed with uninstalling the Dell Software Installer, you must first uninstall those Dell products.
So I guess i leave it alone until some future change removes these “dependencies”
That’s strange. Why would it have a dependency on applications it has installed if it can’t uninstall them?
We are not responsible for QI in this office so we can’t answer these questions.

if you lose the msi you can always use the brute force method of uninstalling the beta by providing the Product ID from the MSI database to msiexec. Here are
the Product ID’s for the 12.5 Beta and sample calls:
32 bit:
msiexec /q /uninstall {DCA96F72-3E06-4008-96EB-6BA511279927}
64 bit:
msiexec /q /uninstall {BA1B586D-A7A3-4B67-A843-43E97F62B3B5}
I know you said you already got it uninstalled but I wanted to write something to look smart and get points on Toad World.

I’d rather remain a Teacher, with that suit and tie and apple on my desk. The Master looks like a goofy animation from a Disney movie.
Wow - that makes you the red head “Amy Squirrel” teacher off the movie “Bad teacher”. That’s OK - cause you’re no Cameron Diaz nor Justin Timberlake (and glad of that last one I’m sure)
