How do I fix a faulty installation of Server Administrator?
You can fix a faulty installation by forcing a reinstall and then performing an uninstall of Server
Administrator. To force a reinstall:
1. Find out the version of Server Administrator that was previously installed.
2. Download the installation package for that version.
3. Locate <SysMgmt or SysMgmtx64>.msi and enter the following command at the command prompt
to force a reinstall.
msiexec /i <SysMgmt or SysMgmtx64>.msi REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus
4. Select Custom Setup and choose all the features that were originally installed. If you are not sure
which features were installed, select all of them and perform the installation.
NOTE: If you installed Server Administrator in a non-default directory, make sure to change it in
Custom Setup as well.
Once the application is installed, you can uninstall it from Add/Remove Programs.
