Hello, I am currently using STRIP version 2.5.11.0 . Today I saw update and I am trying to upgrade to codbook, but I get error on uninstalling old version. Seems it looks for old install file, which I don’t have , and I can’t find on download section.

What should I do to upgrade ?

Hello @cdman

I’m sorry to hear that you are seeing an issue attempting to uninstall an older version of STRIP. Microsoft has a tool called [Fixit](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall) which can help you uninstall an application from your system when the Add/Remove Programs fails. Could you try running Fixit from Internet Explorer, going through their wizard and let us know if you are able to successfully uninstall the application?

Unfortunately - that does not work on windows 10 which I use:

> **[Microsoft Fix It will not work on Windows 10 yet...](https://upandready.typepad.com/up_and_ready/2015/07/microsoft-fix-it-will-not-work-on-windows-10-yet.html)**
>
> Hot off the presses, Microsoft Fix It will not work on Windows 10 yet. It will look like this: The original Microsoft Fix It results in the not supported error message and the newer one will redirect you to Search Microsoft Thanks to David Haukeness...

I think if someone can give me that msi for 2.5.11.0 - it will fix the problem - but I don’t keep ?

any other ideas ?

Hello @cdman

I’m sorry to hear that FixIt does not run on Windows 10. We have had customers report success when using [Revo Uninstaller](http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html) which offers a free version. Could you give that a try. I apologize for the inconvenience.
