Question: What is the proper way to completely uninstall Riva CRM Desktop Edition?
Answer: Please ensure that you read the WARNING about reversing settings before uninstalling the Riva CRM Desktop Edition application.
W A R N I N G
Riva CRM Desktop Edition will not automatically reverse the "automatic startup when Windows starts" setting when it is uninstalled. Users must reverse existing settings BEFORE uninstalling Riva CRM Desktop Edition.
GroupWise Address Books and Calendars created in the user's GroupWise account by Riva CRM Desktop Edition will not be removed by uninstalling the application. Users must manually remove GroupWise Address Books and Calendars created by Riva CRM Desktop Edition.
STEPS
Recommended steps to uninstall Riva CRM Desktop Edition are:
- Modify the application startup and synchronization settings.
- Manually remove Riva Desktop Edition.
- (Optional) Manually remove GroupWise Address Books and Calendars created by Riva Desktop Edition.
