Unable to uninstall webMethods 8.2 in windows 7

The problem is wM 8.2 that you have installed is a 32-bit image and your operating system is 64-bit.
Try to download windows uninstaller from Google if not go the installation folder and delete the SAG webMethods folder.

Try to download windows uninstaller from Google or if not trying uninstalling through command prompt (Google should help you with the commands) if not
Last option: go the installation folder and delete the SAG webMethods folder.
Also check the broker server & monitor from the windows services list whether they are stopped.
Did you upgrade your OS after installing webMethods products?
Please check the <WM_DIR>/install/products/CustomInstall.prop as below:
- Find the value which corresponds to product, let’s consider it as <product_name>
- Find the value which corresponds to <product_name>/children, consider it as <children_name>
In my case, the file content is:
product=e2ei/11/WIR_9.0.1.0.554/Infrastructure/CustomInstall
e2ei/11/WIR_9.0.1.0.554/Infrastructure/CustomInstall/children=CustomInstall-LNXAMD64-Domestic,CustomInstall-LNXAMD64-Export
So the <children_name> is CustomInstall-LNXAMD64-Domestic,CustomInstall-LNXAMD64-Export
Could you paste your <children_name> and OS info?
Thanks for the response.
product=e2ei/11/WIR_8.2.4.1.176/Infrastructure/CustomInstall
e2ei/11/WIR_8.2.4.1.176/Infrastructure/CustomInstall/children=CustomInstall-W64-Domestic,CustomInstall-W64-Export
Product e2ei/11/WIR_8.2.4.1.176/Infrastructure/CustomInstall properties
I am not sure about upgrade. I have taken from the other employee.
It means the webMethods products were installed in a Microsoft Windows x86-64 (EM64T, AMD64). Could you try to run the code below, and see what’s the OS now? You may need to import <WM_DIR>/install/jars/DistMan.jar.
import com.wm.distman.install.DistManUtils;
System.out.println(DistManUtils.pkgString());I am getting the below output
WNT
Did you try running the uninstaller from the Windows Control Center?
Did you try running the console based uninstaller with the mentioned option “-32bitinstall” (mentioned in your first screenshot)?
If so please share the results.
I had an 8.2 installation using a 32Bit image on my Windows 7 64Bit maschine some time ago and I was able to uninstall it by using the Windows Control Center. Only part I left installed is the UpdateManager and its requirements.

Please try to run Uninstaller using the command below, replace <WM_DIR> with the directory where you install the webMethods:
java -cp <WM_DIR>/install/jars/DistMan.jar com.wm.distman.install.DistManUninstallMain -fakePlatform W64 -installDir <WM_DIR>
In my case, it’s:
java -cp /opt/wm9/install/jars/DistMan.jar com.wm.distman.install.DistManUninstallMain -fakePlatform W64 -installDir /opt/wm9

You can try to use Revo-Uninstaller, it may resolve the issue. Please update after a try.
Thanks,
Revo-Uninstaller also uses the same WM uninstaller. Hence, this doesn’t work
This is the only right answer given on the thread…
Use use the command and it works. The reason for this issue?
SoftwareAG tries to access your local temp folder to load/unload the installer files and run a script to know what’s your version. If it fails to identify or run the command (due to admin restrictions, etc.) it assigns your system as 32-bit, even though it was 64-bit OS.
