How to Remove Autodesk App Manager – PUPs Removal Guide

Autodesk App Manager is a cloud-centric software delivery solution packed with AutoCAD to simplify the process of managing apps installed from Exchange. Typically it self-installs with all Autodesk 2015 suites and actively keeps you informed of available product updates by sending alerts on your desktop. For some AutoCAD users, it helps them stay current with their applications and enjoy enhanced levels of performance. While for other users, the update messages that pops up tray alerts may be considered unnecessary or annoying, and the background service, though mainly remains dormant, consumes a certain degree of system resources. So these users tend to disable or even uninstall this plug-in application. If you desire to remove Autodesk App Manager for personal reasons, what is the right way to do it? Here we provide you two solutions to fully get rid of Autodesk App Manager.

You should be noticed that, uninstalling a program via Windows Add/Remove Programs only remove the main executable files of this program, yet some of its invalid files may remains in system registry or folders.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\
  to check whether there still exists any related files and folder. If so, delete them.

Notice: As a collection of databases of configuration settings, the registry is quite crucial to the Windows operating system. You are not supposed to delete any entries unless you know exactly they belong to the program you wanna uninstall completely.
