Solid Edge Tip of the Week - How to Uninstall a Maintenance Pack

In this week’s tip, we walk through the process of uninstalling a Maintenance Pack for Solid Edge. Starting with ST8, you can now download Maintenance Packs with the .msi file extension instead of .exe and therefore will be able to uninstall it without uninstalling all of Solid Edge.

  1. With Solid Edge closed, go to the start menu, then control panel.
  2. Go to Uninstall Programs> View Installed updates
  3. Scroll to Solid Edge ST8, select it, and hit Uninstall.  This will only uninstall the Maintenance Pack. It will not uninstall all of Solid Edge.
