Updated Date: Aug 16, 2019

Please provide feedback to https://podio.com/webforms/15459646/1036539 to help us improve the tool.

Description

The VDA cleanup utility assists with the following scenarios:

  • When errors occur during an upgrade from an earlier version of the VDA
  • When unexpected behavior or performance is experienced after an upgrade from an earlier VDA
  • If a VDA upgrade is not possible due to feature incompatibility and a clean uninstall is required
  • The VDA cleanup Utility removes components, files, and registry values of VDA 5.6 and later

Important Notes

For all users:

  1. When removing a 7.x VDA, the tool can take up to 20 minutes to complete and seem unresponsive during this time. To prevent the system from becoming unstable or unusable, do not terminate or relaunch the tool. Instead, allow the tool to complete the removal process on its own and then restart the system when prompted to do so.
  2. Windows 8.1 is currently not supported by this version of the tool.

  • Improved the driver removal.
  • Reduced uninstall times for VDA versions 7.7 through 7.11 running on Windows 2012 R2 or Windows 10 operating systems.
  • Changed to not clear AppInit DLL registry values during VDA uninstall
