How to Uninstall The Keyword Research Software

It is not necessary to uninstall old versions of our keyword research software. However, all standard uninstall methods are supported.

It Is Not Necessary to Uninstall before Installing a New Version

It is usually not necessary to uninstall the A1 Keyword Research software before installing the newest version.

The installer will automatically try to suggest an appropriate installation path as the default. This is based on the following:
  • If you have an earlier version installed from within the same version series, this program location can be reused. This means e.g. version 11.0.0 and 11.9.9 can be installed into the same directory.
  • If you are installing a new major version, e.g. 12.x instead of 11.x the installation directory can not be reused.

Note: The A1 Keyword Research license is per user and not per computer, so you do not need to uninstall before moving A1 Keyword Research and data files to another computer.


Supports All Standard Windows Uninstall Methods

Please note that support regarding this is only for non-modified distributions of our program. If you did not download our software from Microsys, reputable download site, magazine or similar, you may be using an altered software copy meaning the normal uninstall instructions may not apply.

In the list, search for A1 Keyword Research. Depending on the version, the corresponding icon looks like this:



Note: You will often need to have a user account with administrator rights to successfully uninstall. You can configure user accounts in Windows | Start | Settings | Control Panel | Users and Passwords.

Note: If you can not locate the uninstall item for whatever reason, it is generally safe to simply delete the files of non-modified A1 Keyword Research software releases.
