Finding SAPsweep

Giovanni Davila

Published: 26 Nov 2003

I have SAP GUI 4.6D installed on my Windows 2000 laptop. I would like to completely remove it, including cleaning the registry. It was installed from an early SAP GUI 4.6D CD which does not have the SAPsweep.exe program. Is there somewhere on the net I can download SAPsweep?
You can find SAPsweep.exe on the SAPGUI (SAP FrontEnd) CD. You can also download it from any of the SAPServ FTP sites. If you cannot find it, e-mail me at giovanni@giovannidavila.com and I'll be happy to send it to you in an e-mail.

Alternatively, you can remove SAPGUI using the uninstall program that comes with it. And then, carefully remove the "SAP" folder under HKLMSoftware and HKCUSoftware in the Windows registry.
