      I have a current issue on my main office workstation, I had the old legacy fog client installed from my old fog server, I installed the latest version of Fog 1.5.8 on my server, I went to install the new Fog Client on the workstation, it keeps appearing saying I need to uninstall the old client before I install the new one.
      The strange thing, the client isn’t installed, I looked it up in programs and features and It isn’t in there listed, and the Program File location isn’t there either. Is there a hidden file I need to delete?

        @furiousgamer065 While I don’t use the FOG Client, things I can think.

        At one time there was a /fog directory off the root of 😄
        Another place to look is to see if there is a fog client service running
        For the application path look in both program files x86 as well as program files
        The last place is to see if there is any registry entries for FOG.

        Ok one last, last place to look is in c:\progdata to see if there are any fog bits in there.

        I’m kind of leaning on fog registry entries left behind.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

          @george1421 The Client installation files were gone, there in no info in the program data directory. I think it’s the registry entries left.

                @FuriousGamer065 Without knowing the exact error message we can’t be sure but from what you say it sounds like the following registry sub key still exists: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{91C5D423-B6AB-4EAB-8F17-2BB3AE162CA1}

                Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                  @sebastian-roth I looked in the registry and I deleted the left over fog files, I got it to work after a little tinkering.
