Installation

Overlapping UF installation

I installed a 64bit version of UF in my Win Server 2008 Server. I created a new package in SCCM to push out the 32bit version to my other servers. For some reason, my 64bit Servers also received this package so now I have two Splunk UF installed in my Win Server 2008. I tried to uninstall the UF using Add Remove Program but I'm getting an error "Another program is being installed. Please wait until that installation is complete, and then try installing this software again".

Is there a way to manually force the uninstall wizard? Or is there another way to remove the UF?

I rebooted the server and then I was able to uninstall the UF from the Control Panel. Looks like the second installation got stuck in the background.
