Uninstall Surveyor.exe Service

[Peter Davies_5]

As this service was replaced by Insight Manager Diagnostics, is there a way to uninstall this service?

Appreciate replies

I've just done the same ;)
Here's what you need to do in a batchfile:

----------------------

@echo off

echo Unloading Compaq Survey and removing service...
C:
CD\COMPAQ\SURVEY
START /WAIT SURVEY -U

echo Doing cleanup of HP leftovers...

echo Removing Control Panel items...
RunDll32 C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\INSTAL~1\engine\6\INTEL3~1\ctor.dll,LaunchSetup "C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{42FF18A5-EE1C-11D3-825F-00805FD6C6D4}\setup.exe" UNINSTALL

echo Removing Survey folder...
CD\COMPAQ
rmdir /s /q survey

echo Removing registry settings for survey...
regedit /s remove_survey_leftovers.reg


----------------------

and here's the regfile referenced at the end:


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Compaq\Survey]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hewlett-Packard\Hewlett-Packard Survey Utility]

Thanks for this info, these surveyor errors were a pain in the neck.
