Hello,
I have completely uninstalled the WindowsForms 14.1 package from my machine but in the Visual Studio 2010 and also 2013 there is still a menu item under Infragistics with an entry “Platform Installer 2014.1”. Does anybody know how this entry can be removed manually?
Thank you for any help!
regardsFrank
Hello Frank,
It looks like you still have 'Infragistics Visual Studio Extension 2014.1' installed on your machine.
You can remove Infragistics Visual Studio Extension either through,
1. Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features\ or
2. Select the menu item Infragistics\Platform Installer 2014.1 and click Uninstall. On the next dialog check 'Visual Studio Extension' and do Next which will lead you through uninstalling the same.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
thanks

Hello Josheela John,
I have installed again the WindowsForms 14.1 package and then uninstalled the WindowsForms 14.1.Then the complete “Infragistics” menu item in Visual Studio 2013 was erased.After installing again “Infragistics Version Utility 2015.1” and “Infragistics Visual Studio Extension 2015.1” the menu item in Visual Studio 2013 was created new and it still shows “Platform Installer 2014.1”.
In my “Control Panel“ everything regarding WindowsForms 14.1 is uninstalled.Next I did check for any installation folders and I have found two:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Infragistics\2015.1\Version UtilityC:\ProgramData\Infragistics\14.1
Under “C:\ProgramData\Infragistics\14.1\Log Files” I have found a logfile "IGPlatformInstall.log" and attached.
I have had in the past a strange behavior with “WindowsForms 14.1” and maybe there is a correlation with this post: http://ko.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/95184.aspx

You can completely remove the menuitem ''Platform Installer 2014.1'' from Visual Studio by removing the 2014.1 folder mentioned in your reply and carefully removing the registry entry pointing to that folder.
1. Remove registry entry, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Infragistics\Installer\2014.1\PlatformInstaller
2. Remove folder, C:\ProgramData\Infragistics\14.1
Please let me know if you have any more questions.
