==== How to uninstall a corrupted SAS 9.4 in Windows64-bit ====

Step 1: Backup your data

* Before uninstalling, back up any important SAS projects, libraries, or configuration files you may need later.

Step 2: Use SAS Deployment Manager to uninstall

*1. Locate SAS Deployment Manager:

** Go to the SAS installation folder, usually something like:

** C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASDeploymentManager\9.4

** Run SASDeploymentManager.exe as Administrator.

*2. Uninstall:

** Select "Uninstall SAS Software".

** Follow the prompts to remove SAS 9.4.

Note: If this runs successfully, you’re done. If the software is corrupted, this might not work or might error out.

Step 3: Use Windows Control Panel (if Deployment Manager fails)

* Open Control Panel > Programs and Features.

* Find SAS 9.4 in the list.

* Try to uninstall it normally.

If this fails or gives errors, proceed to manual removal.

Step 4: Manual removal (only if the above steps fail)

*1. Stop SAS Services:

** Open Services (search services.msc).

** Stop any services related to SAS.

*2. Delete SAS folders:

** Delete the SAS installation directories, usually:

** C:\Program Files\SASHome

** C:\Program Files\SAS

** Also check for folders in:

** C:\ProgramData\SAS

** C:\Users\<YourUser>\AppData\Local\SAS

** C:\Users\<YourUser>\AppData\Roaming\SAS

*3. Clean up Registry (Warning: Be very careful editing the registry!)

** Open Registry Editor (regedit).

** Backup the registry first: File > Export > Save backup.

** Search for keys related to SAS by pressing Ctrl+F and typing SAS.

** Delete SAS-related keys only.

*4. Remove environment variables:

** Right-click This PC > Properties > Advanced system settings > Environment Variables.

** Remove any SAS-related environment variables.

*5. Restart your PC.

Step 5: Clean with third-party uninstallers (optional)

* Use third-party tools like Revo Uninstaller or IObit Uninstaller to scan leftover files and registry entries.

Step 6: Reinstall SAS (if needed)

* After full removal, you can try reinstalling SAS 9.4 cleanly.
