After I uninstalled AWCC some of the files were left in my pc. I couldn´t get rid of it. I solved this with Revo uninstaller program. it worked fine for me. Hope this helps
Hello i used to have this problem with adobe products and as stupid as it sounds download the control centre again but this time save it to a different location, like desktop, so long as it is different then run the installer. It used to work for me. if it still wont install a simple registry edit should do it.
Appreciate the reply; I have tried that without success, unfortunately. I have attempted to install from 2 internal hard-drives and a USB drive. I believe the base problem is the old command center cannot uninstall and it seems to be unaffected by where the new install originates.
I looked at a registry edit but the noted keys (taken from Alienware's instructions for manually uninstalling) are not present. If there is a registry edit to be made I have not found it yet.
Navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products". Manually select each listing within this folder until you come across any with the software name under "ProductName".
For any of these entries you find, right-click on each one. Choose "Export". Once again right-click the listing This time, choose "Delete".
Finally, you should reboot your PC and then re-run the installer executable.
Here's how I fixed it on computer Alienware 17r5 2018, I reinstalled English Windows 10 on a Chinese Windows 10 and it deleted my Alienware control center, I couldn't reinstall it. Fatal Error 1063, here's what I did:
Launch the Run Command (Windows Key + R)
Type %appdata% and press Enter
Delete any Alienware Folder. If the folder is not there just continue.
Type %programdata% and press Enter
Delete any Alienware Folder. If the folder is not there just continue.
Go To C:\Program Files\Alienware\ （Older versions of command center will be under C:\Program Files (x86), please check both folders.）
Delete the Alienware Folder
Go to the Documents Folder (My Documents on Win 7)
Delete the AlienFX and Alienware TactX Folders
Launch the Run Command
Type regedit
Search the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Alienware
Delete Alienware Folder
Search the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Alienware
Delete Alienware Folder
Restart PC
Reinstall microsoft netframework (I installed .NET Framework 4.7.2)
Restart PC
Download older version of Alienware Control Center from Dell (Older is more stable, 5.2 was out and I downloaded 5.1)
