  • 1.  Error 2755, 1605 When Uninstalling vCenter

    Posted Jul 08, 2017 02:47 PM

    I'm currently trying to remove vCenter completely from a server that had a botched install. The installation said it completed successfully, but most of the vCenter modules never actually installed and instead loaded my services window with a bunch of non-functional VMWare services. The uninstallation completes almost to the end and then I get a window popup with: "VMware vCenter Server 6.0.0 - Internal Error 2755. 1605, <Path>\VMWare-vCenter-Server.msi"

    This is running on a newly installed/updated Windows 2012R12 server - any ideas on how to proceed, or manually remove all vCenter remnants, so I can reinstall again?

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks, but this isn't going to remedy the issue. I need to completely remove vCenter - the information within doesn't matter since it never actually worked. The installer didn't install the modules correctly, but reported that it completed successfully at the end of the installation when, in fact, that wasn't the case. Unfortunately, now I cannot reinstall/uninstall the pieces left behind to get this up and running.
