Known Issues
When you upgrade Zend Server on Windows, the installer leaves an extra entry under “Programs and Features” page, referencing the former version. If you uninstall Zend Server later, the extra entry will remain on the list of installed programs and cannot be removed by running the “uninstall” action. To manually remove the extra entry, you can edit the registry, search for “Zend Server” under registry keys HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall, then remove the key holding the uninstall data. For any questions or concerns, please contact Zend Server support.
